the SIGN.

Paper or plastic sign stapled to a stick.

Lookit the stick!!

The sign is also often worth looking at. In some precincts, it's
Corroplast, sort of like cardboard only made out of extruded
polypropylene instead of wood pulp. It's damn handy stuff for
projects, stiff, light, and waterproof. Google it and see what the
bike people in particular do with it.

The pay for many school boards is all the s__t you can eat, although
sometimes those boards - water and sewer boards are notorious for this
- have juicy pensions after relatively short service at low or no pay.
