BUS DISCIPLINE POLICY
PURPOSE: Our goal is to provide students a safe ride to school. Sometimes disciplinary steps are needed to ensure that a safe ride occurs for all students.

DISCIPLINARY STEPS:
1st STEP: The bus driver will talk to the student; contact parent by phone; log the call and file paper work with bus garage supervisor.

2nd STEP: The driver will provide a written bus discipline notice to the bus garage supervisor. The bus garage supervisor will contact parent; administer discipline; contact the building administrator if needed; logs discipline in student’s file.

3rd STEP: The driver will provide a written bus discipline notice to the bus garage supervisor. The bus garage supervisor will contact parent; administer a minimum 3-day bus suspension; the student is suspended from the bus until parent contact is made.

4th STEP: The driver will provide a written bus discipline notice to the bus garage supervisor. The bus garage supervisor will suspend the student from bus indefinitely; the bus garage supervisor will contact the parent for conference.

A violation of individual driver rules such as no eating, no radios, etc. is a minor infraction. Sometimes drivers may use incentives for students. Violations that occur in the last few days of school may be brought forward to the following school year. All school rules apply both on bus and in school. These bus rules will be included in the student handbooks.

The bus driver at all times is in charge of the bus and its occupants. This includes students being transported to and from school, sports events, field trips, etc. Being transported in school vehicles is a privilege, not a right.

Students need to be aware that back packs, carry on articles, coats, etc. are subject to searches if there is reason to believe that a school rule, policy or law has been broken.

All school rules and disciplinary procedures apply to students using school transportation at all time.
