BUS TRANSPORTATION OF STUDENTS
Students who ride the bus MUST leave the school on the regular bus run at the end of the school day. If you want your child/children not to take the bus, a note or telephone call from a parent or guardian is necessary. If a town student wishes to ride the bus out of town to another student’s house, a note or telephone call from parents/guardian is necessary. There are no exceptions.
Student safety is the primary concern of
School bus riders, while in transit, are under the jurisdiction of the school bus driver.
All students riding the bus must follow the same rules as are expected while in school.
The following additional rules are to be followed on the bus:
1. Students are expected to remain in their seat while the bus is in motion. Students
must keep their hands, arms, and head inside the bus at all times.
2. Students must be picked up and dropped off at the same location, Monday through
Friday. Those requests to be transported to/from a different location must be submitted to the School Office.
3. Parents who wish their child (who does not ordinarily ride the bus) to ride the bus must submit a written note to the office for the bus driver. This note will be kept on file.
4. Students are expected to be absolutely quiet when approaching a railroad crossing.
5. No eating or drinking is allowed on the bus.
DISCIPLINARY REFERRALS WILL BE GIVEN BY THE BUS DRIVER. THREE OFFENSES MAY RESULT IN A FIVE-DAY SUSPENSION OF BUS SERVICE.
