Southaven seeks crossing guards as school year begins
Southaven is seeking crossing guards ahead of the upcoming school year, the city said in a Facebook post. The post said openings remain for part-time crossing guard positions as classes resume.
The post noted the roles involve just a few hours a day and urged interested residents to apply through the city’s employment page at southaven.org/jobs.aspx. The announcement did not provide details on the number of openings or pay.
Crossing guards help students and other pedestrians cross streets safely at school arrival and dismissal times and are typically scheduled for brief morning and afternoon shifts. Municipalities and school districts commonly rely on crossing guards to supplement traffic control and enhance student safety near schools.
The city’s call for applicants highlights local efforts to ensure safe routes to school as classes restart. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
