Bus Rules and Safety
Bus Passes – A bus pass is an RFID reader. Preschool – 8th grade passes have to be checked each time a student gets off at their designated bus stop. It is the transportation employee(s)' responsibility to read the bus stop location and make sure the student is exiting at the bus stop location printed on the bus pass. In the PM, it is a "no pass, no ride" procedure. Temporary bus passes are available only for new students or if our systems are down and we cannot get students a new badge after they pay for a replacement.
