A Lakeside Middle School teacher was hit by a vehicle in a crosswalk on the main access road between Lakeside Middle and Lakeside High School Tuesday.

Kent Moore was assisting with crossing guard duty when he was struck, according to an email from Abbigail Remkus, director of communications for the Columbia County School System. Moore sustained minor injuries and was transported to Augusta University Medical Center for further evaluation.

“We urge the public to practice extreme caution and remain alert when driving in school zones and on school campuses. The CCSD and the Lakeside school communities extend sincere wishes for a full recovery to Mr. Moore,” the email said.
