Your children’s safety is very important to us during the school day as well as on their way to and from school.  We reviewed school bus safety rules with students at the beginning of the year and would like you to review them with your children as we approach mid-year.  All school rules apply to the bus.  Students need to be Respectful, Responsible, and Ready.  Student responsibilities on the bus are:

• Enter the bus in an orderly manner and take a seat
• Follow the instructions of the bus driver
• Remain sitting on the seat while the bus is in motion
• Keep the aisle clear at all times
• Remain quiet and orderly
• Be courteous to the driver and fellow passengers

When necessary, bus drivers complete bus conduct reports and school administrators follow-up.  Thank you for your assistance in helping ensure students arrive to school and home again in a safe manner.  Please refer to the HCPSS website for more information about bus transportation.  http://www.hcpss.org/schools/transportation/
