Guidelines for student behavior problems on buses were set forth by the Board of Directors on February 15, 1984.
If a student violates "proper behavior" on a bus, the following four-part steps of action will be taken:
- Part I – First Offense: Student will receive a warning and notice will be sent home to parents stating consequences for misbehavior on the bus.
- Part II – Second Offense: Student will be given a one-week suspension from riding the bus.
- Part III – Third Offense: Student will be suspended from riding the bus for the balance of the semester.
- Part IV – Fourth Offense: If all of the above offenses happen during the first semester, the student will begin the second semester on Part III, meaning the next offense will result in the loss of riding privileges for the remainder of the school term.
