Conduct On The School Bus

Riding the school bus to and from school is a privilege and should be treated as such. For insurance and liability reasons, you may only ride your designated bus.  While on the bus, students must:
  • remain seated at all times,
  • not interrupt or distract the bus driver,
  • refrain from any yelling or use of profanity,
  • keep windows closed, and heads and arms inside the bus,
  • obey all directions given by the school bus driver,
  • not touch the emergency exits.

​Parking

​Students may use the western half of the north parking lot of the school to park.  All vehicles are to be parked in designated parking spots and in an orderly manner.  Parking is forbidden to students in the following areas:
  • At the ends of the aisles nearest the school.  This is a fire lane.
  • Close to the school in the designated Handicap parking spots and in the drop-off circle.
  • In the south parking lot (in circle at the front of the school).
  • In the new west parking lot adjacent to the new addition of the school
 
The school supports those students who require the use of vehicles for work, cooperative education or to meet family responsibilities.  If however, the presence of a vehicle on the property causes a disruption to classroom performance or is a safety risk, parking privileges may be revoked.
