📰 News we're reading
• Radford City Schools gives update on school bus stop-arm cameras (wdbj7.com) — Radford City Schools’ new stop-arm cameras are actively catching drivers who illegally pass stopped school buses on Rock Road, Main Street, and other routes. Since January, transportation staff have sent dozens of video clips to Radford Police, who issue traffic violations and fines. School leaders say the program is about student safety, not revenue, and plan to keep the cameras long term. 
• Local school divisions offer free summer meals for families (wdbj7.com) — Radford families can get free breakfast and lunch for kids in June at Belle Heth Elementary and Radford High School through the USDA Summer Food Service Program. The effort helps students who rely on school meals continue eating regularly when classes are out. Similar programs are running in Franklin County and other nearby divisions, with some sites even offering weekend food boxes.
