Riders will be issued bus passes and will be required to produce, scan or tap them when getting on and off the bus.
Bus transportation service will not accommodate transportation to extracurricular activities or locations other than the student’s home address(es).
In order to maintain registration for bus service, registered riders must comply with the School Bus Riders Code of Conduct.
