School Bus Conduct
Behavior that distracts the bus or van driver and jeopardizes passenger safety is not permitted. Students who ride a bus or van are expected to act in a courteous, respectful manner that helps to ensure a safe ride for everyone. Parents are urged to review these transportation rules with their children.
At the Bus Stop --
- Be at your bus stop 5 minutes ahead of time.
- Do not play in the street while waiting for the bus.
- Stand back from the curb.
- Do not run to or from the bus.
- Wait for the driver's signal before crossing.
- Do not cross the street behind the school bus.
- Look both ways before crossing the road.
- Remain 10 large steps (at least ten feet) away from the front of the bus so the driver can see you.
- Do not crawl nor reach under a school bus to retrieve something underneath it.
On the Bus --
- Observe the same conduct required in the classroom as outlined in your Student Handbook.
- Cooperate with the bus driver.
- Remain seated for the entire ride.
- Keep head, hands and feet inside the bus.
- Talk quietly so everyone can hear instructions from the bus driver.
- Do not eat or drink on the bus.
- Do not throw objects into or out of the bus.
Remember --
- The bus driver is authorized to assign seats.
- Rear exit doors are only to be used in emergencies.
- Violators of rules will be reported to the principal and misbehavior may result in the loss of transportation privileges.
- Students who wish to go home with a friend on a bus not regularly assigned are required to obtain prior approval from their school by presenting notes from parents of both students to the office.
- Neither the School District nor the transportation company is responsible for lost or stolen articles.
