Questions regarding district transportation can be directed to Ms. Brenda Long at [email protected] or via phone at 814-817-1380.
Safety on district provided transportation is of the utmost importance. For that reason, school policies are in place to keep students safe while boarding, riding, and exiting district transportation. We ask that the following rules be followed so that the system functions smoothly.
1. Drivers may assign seats and change them as needed.
2. Sit in seats- Do not stand.
3. No use of abusive language or profanity.
4. No food/drink on the bus.
5. Students should board and exit the bus in an orderly fashion.
6. Throwing of any objects is strictly forbidden and will likely result in suspension from the bus.
7. Arms, hands, etc. are to be kept away from windows and doors. Objects are not to be thrown from the bus.
8. Students may board and exit at assigned stops only.
9. Be on time at the home bus stop.
10. Wait at the bus stop out of the way of traffic and off of the highway.
11. Remain in one seat during the entire trip.
12. No use or possession of tobacco, alcohol, or drugs.
Remember that riding district provided transportation is a privilege, not a right. Violation of rules may result in temporary or permanent suspension from the bus.
Should a student desire to ride a different bus and/or get off at a different stop, the following documentation is needed:
A: A written note signed by a parent/guardian authorizing the temporary change on the specified date
B: A written note signed by the parent/guardian of the destination household authorizing the temporary change on the specified date
* Notes are to be turned in to the office before homeroom on the day of the change. The notes are then signed by the building Principal and returned to the student so they can be given directly to the bus driver.
