Deputies and police officers will be on extra patrol during the first week of school for Bulloch County Schools as parents and students get used to new traffic patterns, bus routes, schedules and drop-off and pick-up locations. Bulloch County sheriff's deputies will be patrolling all schools, and Statesboro police will monitor Statesboro High School and other campuses inside the city limits. Parents and driving students are asked to "be patient, slow down and leave early so they don't have to rush," said Bulloch County Sheriff Noel Brown.
