Riding the Bus to Komachin

  • All school policies are in effect at bus stops and on school buses at all times and student misconduct will be subject to progressive discipline up to and including suspension from the bus for the remainder of the year.
     
    Student transportation is a privilege -- not a right.  Violation of school bus rules can create an immediate danger to the health and safety of others. Student conduct on the buses and at the bus stops must reflect good judgment and meet the expectations we have for all students at school. You are expected to follow these rules at all times. Any infraction of the rules may result in discontinuation of bus riding privileges.
     

    Bus Riding Guidelines

    Obey the Bus Driver

    • Throwing articles in or from the bus is not allowed.
    • Pushing, hitting, or shoving others is not acceptable.
    • Students will not extend their hands, arms, or head out of bus windows.

    Stay Seated and Face Forward

    • The bus driver may assign seats.
    • Stay seated until the bus comes to a full stop.

    Loading and Unloading Procedures

    • Cross the road in front of the bus, never behind it.
