Bus Rider Reminders

In an effort to create a safe environment for both students and our bus drivers, we kindly ask that you review the WCPSS Bus Code of Conduct with your student(s) as well as these important reminders about bus behavior:

1. Show respect for the driver at all times.

2. Enter and leave the bus without pushing or crowding.

3. Be seated in your assigned seat at all times while the bus is in motion.

4. Talk using a quiet tone of voice and without profane or abusive language.

5. Keep the bus clean and avoid littering.

6. Keep hands and feet to yourself.

7. Refrain from horse playing or aggressive behaviors on the bus.

Additionally, WCPSS has asked us to take the following steps when students engage in unsafe or disruptive behavior on the bus:

	Middle School
1^st referral	Action by school admin
2^nd referral	0-5 day bus suspension
3^rd referral	1-10 day bus suspension
4^th referral	1-15 day bus suspension
5^th referral	Susp remainder of year
Major offense	Immediate suspension (term decided by Principal)

It is important that we work together, as a team, to make sure we are supporting our bus drivers so that every student has a safe ride home. Please do not hesitate to reach out to WCPSS Transportation by filling out this form if you have any questions or concerns about the WCPSS Bus Rider Code of Conduct or anything else related to WCPSS Transportation.
