Bright Yellow Safety Vests for Bus Drivers and Monitors Bright Yellow Safety Vests for Bus Drivers and Monitors

Our transportation partner asked us to inform families that bus drivers and monitors will now wear First Student–branded bright yellow safety vests as part of their uniforms. These high-visibility vests help families and students easily identify First Student employees. They also support our commitment to safety by increasing visibility during student loading and unloading, particularly in low-light conditions or busy traffic areas.

2026 Girls STEAM Celebration Here at HF 2026 Girls STEAM Celebration Here at HF

Homewood Science Center will host its annual Girls STEAM Celebration on Saturday, April 11, 2026, from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. right here at Homewood-Flossmoor High School’s state-of-the-art Net Zero Science Building. This inspiring event will welcome up to 100 middle school girls from James Hart and Parker Junior High for a day of exploration, empowerment, and real-world connection to careers in science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM).


“Introducing girls to STEAM role models and educational pathways during middle school is

powerful,” said Edie Dobrez, Executive Director of Homewood Science Center. “When girls can

see women who look like them thriving in STEAM fields, they begin to envision those

possibilities for themselves.”
