Supplies & Materials
The Supplies & Materials page is where you will likely spend the most time. Visit it to set up your school’s business account so you can shop for most patrol supplies and materials through our online shopping cart; visit Alpine Products, to purchase your patrol’s state approved flags and vests.
Funding
The Supplies & Materials page also connects you to the Washington Traffic Safety Commission’s (WTSC) School Zone Crossing Guard Grants program. The state agency is currently accepting applications to help you pay for specific AAA School Safety Patrol expenses. Until the funds run out, every school with an already-operating patrol can apply for a $300 grant each academic year. A one-time $500 grant is available for schools launching a brand new squad. Just click that “Learn More” button in our School-Zone Safety Grants section.
