Transportation

Help protect your children by teaching them about bus safety and expected behavior. It's important for kids to understand that the bus ride to and from school is not another recess period. In fact, many of the same classroom rules apply on the bus - stay in your seat, keep your hands and feet to yourself, treat others as you wish to be treated and don't disrupt the class or in this case distract the driver.

Bus Rules

These rules have been posted in all school buses:

1) Observe the same conduct as in the classroom.
2) Be courteous, us no profane language.
3) Do not eat or drink on the bus.
4) Keep the bus clean.
5) Cooperate with the driver.
6) Do not smoke.
7) Do not be destructive.
8) Stay in your seat.
9) Keep head, hands and feet inside the bus.
10) Bus driver is authorized to assign seats.


Bus Changes

If a child is going somewhere other than home at the end of the day and needs to ride a different bus, you must send a note. It should include the child's full name, the Route # the child will be riding and the full name and address of the person that will be expecting him/her. For the safety of the students, telephone calls are not recommended.


Babysitting or Change of Bus Stop

If your child requires a permanent (long term) change of pickup or drop-off please contact the Transportation Department at 753-4458, extension 1503. 


Use of Video Cameras on District Buses

After due consideration of balancing discipline and to ensure safety on our school buses, the Board of Education has authorized the use of video cameras.


Private / Parochial School Transportation Request

According to State Law, all requests for private/parochial transportation must be submitted by April 1st. Even if your child's placement or acceptance at a particular school has not been finalized, make the request in anticipation of attendance. You may jeopardize your child's right to transportation if requests are late. Call the Transportation Supervisor for more information.
