A student was hit by a car and injured while crossing S. 152nd Street near Highline High School Monday morning, March 6.
According to Catherine Carbone Rogers of Highline Public Schools, the Student was not using a crosswalk.
Medics transported the injured victim to the hospital with minor injuries.
As we previously reported Feb. 24, a hit and run accident tragically killed 73-year old school district employee April Fait nearby.
“Student safety is our top priority, and we encourage you to talk with your children about using caution even when crossing in a designated crosswalk,” Principal Vicki Fisher said.
Here’s the text of an email sent out by the district:
