Choctaw Nicoma-Park School Board Policy for School Bus Riders
Conduct of Students:
School transportation is a privilege provided for the convenience and safety of the students. Undesirable conduct by the students can create a very dangerous situation. There is to be neither loud talking nor moving about while on the bus. Students are to obey requests of the driver the same as they would a teacher.
On or before the first Monday after school begins, all bus riders must fill in a School Bus‑Rider Registration form. The form may be obtained at the school site. It is to be handed to the school bus driver. The student has registered to ride that bus route and is to ride no other route without a transfer. School bus drivers have the authority to assign seats if so desired.
SMOKING, EATING AND SOFT DRINKS ARE PROHIBITED ON THE SCHOOL BUS: no one is to put any part of his/her body out of a window or throw any object out of school bus window. Hands and feet are to be kept out of the aisles and any object carried on the bus is to be held in the students' lap or placed where the driver requests.
ENTERING THE BUS: All students are to stand back until the bus comes to a complete stop, then line up in order to enter the bus single file with no pushing and shoving. Once inside the bus, go directly to a seat and sit down. If the driver has assigned a student a seat that is the seat he is required to sit in.
DEPARTING THE BUS: All students are required to remain seated until the bus comes to a complete stop. When the bus stops, students who get off at the stop are to depart single file as quickly as possible and get away from the bus. If a student must cross the street, he/she is to quickly walk approximately ten steps in front of the bus and wait for the driver to signal when it is safe to cross.
NEVER WALK BEHIND A BUS: All students are to get off the bus at school or at their regular stop unless they have a note from a teacher or their parent. The driver will turn the note in at the transportation office.
DEFACING A SCHOOL BUS: Any student caught writing on a bus, tearing or cutting a seat, tearing off padding or defacing a bus in any manner may be suspended from riding a school bus. Parents of such students are legally liable for damages.
DISCIPLINE: For the first three offenses, the principal is to take whatever action deemed necessary to correct unacceptable conduct by a student while being transported in school transportation. For the fourth offense, the principal may suspend the student from riding the bus for the remainder of the school year. Proper notification of student, parent, driver, and transportation director is necessary.
