Students from across New York returned to school this week. But before they get there every day, they need to cross the street safely, and who better to help than a crossing guard?

Syracuse Police are hoping you might help them out this school year.

There are still openings available for part-time crossing guards near Syracuse schools. Sometimes this position is volunteer, but in this community, it's a paid position.

Apply to help kids every day by calling SPD human resources at 315-448-8780.
