Each child must ride his/her designated bus
and will not be permitted to change buses without permission
from the office. A change in the method of a student’s
transportation requires written notification and approval;
otherwise, the child will be transported home in his/her
usual manner. Approval will not be given for a student to
change buses in order to go home with friends or attend a
non-school meeting.
For safety reasons, it is absolutely
necessary for each and every student to obey their bus
driver. When a student cannot follow the rules on the bus,
the Administration has the right to suspend him/her from
riding the bus. It then becomes the obligation of the
parent to transport the student to and from school.
The Bus Rules are:
1. The driver is in full charge
of the bus and students must obey
the driver.
2. Students shall sit in their
assigned seats at all times, with
their head and arms inside the bus.
3. Eating, drinking, using
tobacco products or chewing gum WILL
NOT be allowed on the bus.
4. Anything that interferes with
student safety will not be
allowed. This includes: fighting, profanity, abusive language,
toy guns and knives, large or sharp objects, fireworks, ball
bats, radios, tape players, animals, glass containers, etc.
5. Students bringing toy guns or
knives on the bus will be
subject to suspension.
School Policy for Bus Referrals is as
follows:
1st Referral: The student will
receive a verbal warning and counseling on the bus rules.
2nd Referral: The student will
receive a verbal reprimand and the parents will be called
and notified by mail.
3rd Referral: The student will
be suspended from riding the bus for one day and the parents
will be called and notified by mail.
Subsequent Referrals: The student
will be suspended from riding
the bus one additional day for each subsequent referral and the
parent will be called and notified by mail.
