  •  

    In an effort to ensure safety,  consistency, and accountability on the school bus, the 91ณินฯอ๘ Transportation Department has adopted the following steps of progressive action.

    SCHOOL BUS NOTICE OF UNSATISFACTORY CONDUCT

    1. 1st Offense: Disciplinary write-up issued and the parent/guardian is contacted by the bus driver. Discipline can include a conference with the school principal/designee.  The student will be warned that further infractions will result in suspension of riding privileges.

    3. 3rd Offense: Bus privileges suspended for 10 school days
    4. 4th Offense: Bus privileges suspended for the remainder of the school year
