BUS EXPECTATIONS
Your child's safety on the bus is very important. All children should exhibit good manners and behavior. Our school bus drivers must be able to concentrate on driving your children to and from school in a safe manner. Students who misbehave on the school bus run the risk of losing bus riding privileges for varying amounts of time. It would then be your parental responsibility to provide transportation to and from school for your child. Please support our efforts in impressing upon your children the importance of following all bus safety rules.
Kindergarten students should be seated in the front of the bus so they can be closely supervised.
On the first day of school, all students riding a bus will receive a bus tag with their bus or van number listed, and it will be attached to their backpacks.
Please review the PBIS Bus Expectations (below) with your child(ren).
