Students, parents/guardians, bus drivers and school officials must work together to provide for the
safe transportation of students. The school buses, bus stops, and all other forms of transportation
provided by the district or provided incidental to a school activity are considered school property.
Students are subject to district authority and discipline while waiting for, entering and riding
district transportation. The superintendent or designee will create and enforce administrative
procedures detailing the conduct expected of students and will make that information available to
students and parents.
Students who fail to observe district rules or fail to contribute to a safe transportation environment
will be subject to disciplinary action including, but not limited to, suspension of the privilege of
riding the bus. Students with disabilities will be disciplined in accordance with their
Individualized Education Program (IEP) or applicable law. The bus driver or other authorized
personnel shall report all misbehavior or dangerous situations to the principal as soon as possible.
