Safety comes first when transporting students to their area schools. Good social and moral conduct is expected from all children using the district’s transportation services. The Code of Student Conduct states that students must conform to school rules, policies, regulations and applicable laws set forth by the Student Code of Conduct. To that end, all students are responsible with helping to make sure that school is a safe place. Students must behave responsibly and respectfully to other students, teachers, school personnel, visitors and guests. Students will not use indecent, obscene or foul language. Parents have an obligation to understand the rules set forth in this Code and review the rules with their child. The bus rules below must be followed by all students riding on school buses. Violations of rules will be met with progressive disciplinary actions.
