School Bus Safety
  • Stand only at a designated bus stop
  • Stay well away from the road and always have a responsible adult with you at the bus stop
  • Do not approach the road until the bus has come to a complete stop and all vehicles and have stopped
  • Keep your eyes on the driver; they can see the road and warn you if a vehicle is approaching the stopped bus and is not stopping
  • Once on the bus, find your seat and stay in it at all times
  • When your turn comes to exit the bus, remain seated until the bus comes to a complete stop
  • Don't do anything that will distract the driver. No arguing, No walking around in the aisles, No yelling etc.
  • Remember to drive with caution! School buses will be on the roads and are carrying precious cargo
  • Report any activity that you think is wrong to the bus driver or a teacher
