BUS SAFETY

Students riding school buses must observe the following procedures:

• Be at the bus stop five minutes before scheduled pick up.
• Keep well away from the road until the bus has stopped. Do not move toward the bus until it has stopped.
• Watch for the bus driver’s signal before crossing the road. Look both ways and then cross the road.
• Board the bus quickly using the handrail and go directly to your seat.
• Remain seated while the bus is in motion.
• Do not eat or drink on the bus as these are prohibited.
• Keep the aisle clear of books, knapsacks, lunch bags and other items.
• Keep windows closed unless the driver permits you to open them and never put hands, arms, head or legs out of the window.
• Never throw anything inside the bus or out of the window.
• Talk quietly, so as not to distract the driver.

Shouting, horseplay and fighting are strictly prohibited; students engaging in these activities will have their bus privileges suspended.
