Students should remember that riding a school bus is a privilege, and buses are school property.  The same rules and regulations that guide student conduct in the classroom apply on the buses as well.  In order to insure safety of all students, the rules listed below must be followed by students riding school buses:

  • Obey the driver's instructions and be courteous at all times.

  • Remain seated until the bus stops.

  • Sit three to a seat, if necessary, to eliminate standing.

  • Keep all parts of the body inside the bus.

  • Do not throw anything inside the bus or out of the bus windows.

  • Keep noise to a minimum.

  • Pushing, shoving, or wrestling are not allowed and may result in the suspension of bus riding privileges.

  • No food or drinks may be taken on a bus without permission of the bus driver.

  • Any article that may hinder the bus driver's vision is not allowed.

  • Board and leave the bus only at an approved stop.

  • Do not attempt to talk to the bus driver while the bus is in motion.

  • Do not get off the bus at any time from the point of departure until you reach your destination, except in cases of emergency and upon notification of the bus driver by written note, signed by the student's parent(s) or guardian(s) and the school principal or transportation supervisor.  Violations will be reported promptly to the local principal by the driver.

  • Exercise proper care and treatment of the bus and bus equipment at all times.  Abuse and damage to the bus must be paid for by the student or his/her parent or guardian.

A STUDENT'S TRANSPORTATION PRIVILEGE CAN BE SUSPENDED, DUE TO MISCONDUCT OR MISBEHAVIOR WHILE ENROUTE TO AND FROM SCHOOL.
