The Clark County Commission voted unanimously today to expand school crossing guard coverage to include middle schools in unincorporated areas of the County in addition to elementary schools .
The County Commission approved an item to renew the County’s contract with All City Management Services through June 2025 with the inclusion of crossing guard services for middle schools . There are 23 middle schools and 100 elementary schools in unincorporated areas within the County .
“We want to make sure every child coming and going to and from school can get there safely , and the data shows that middle school students are at risk , ” said Clark County Commissioner Michael Naft . “We hope the addition of crossing guards near middle schools will enhance the safety of students . We also hope the presence of more crossing guards will serve as a visible reminder to motorists to slow down and be extra cautious when children are present . ”
All City Management Services , which operates as the Crossing Guard Company locally , is recruiting to hire middle school crossing guards for the remaining spring semester and for the school year beginning in August 2024 . The company recruits for crossing guards throughout the school year due to ongoing needs throughout the community . The job pays about $16 an hour in unincorporated Clark County . While school hours vary across the valley , crossing guards work an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon . Successful applicants must be 18 years old , pass an agility and balance assessment , and complete fingerprinting . To learn more visit ACM’s website at
