The purpose of the Transportation Department is to provide our students with safe, effective and efficient transportation to and from school. Our Department understands that this is an enormous responsibility and the department works very hard to provide services in a responsible and professional manner.
Many students' school days begin and end on the school bus. With this in mind, each member of the transportation team remains focused on supporting student achievements and serving students and their families.
Each School Bus Driver is trained to promote positive behaviors and instruct riders on safety procedures. It is important to remember that bus drivers are driving large vehicles and their primary responsibility is the safe operation of the bus to and from your child’s destination. The school bus is much larger and heavier than all other cars on the road. This means that the driver must remain focused on the road. In an effort to provide the best services possible, we request that parents instruct their children in the rules of proper bus behavior. Your child’s behavior has a direct impact on the safety of others.
