Assigned Seats and Daily Roster Checks

Seat assignments will be made prior to the first day of class based on enrolled riders.
Drivers will instruct students on where they are to sit and will attempt to distance students when possible. Students residing in the same household will be seated together.
Seats will be assigned such that the bus will fill from the back to the front to avoid students interacting via the aisle as much as possible.
Students will unload from the front of the bus first to avoid student interactions via the aisle as much as possible.
When possible, open windows while transporting students to improve air circulation.
Roster checks will be completed the first week of school. Any student not enrolled for transportation and attempting to ride the bus will require a parent to retrieve them from the school as it will be imperative to maintain accurate rosters at all times.”
