Transportation
ALTERNATIVE DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP LOCATIONS
The Board recognizes that transportation to alternative drop-off and pick-up addresses may sometimes be necessary. Transportation to said addresses must be approved in writing by the Superintendent or his/her designee prior to the school year. Transportation to alternative drop-off and pick-up locations must be consistent in nature. Students may not use alternate addresses on varying days.
Prior to approval, the administration is required to give consideration to the adequate availability of seating on the school bus as well as location to a regularly scheduled bus stop.
Alternative drop-off and pick-up addresses must adhere to the Board of Education policy regarding distance from school building of attendance.
Students who are eligible for alternative drop-off must be currently within the guidelines of school transportation (distance requirements). This policy is not intended to enable a student to begin transportation nor circumvent any other transportation policies.
BIKE RIDER RULES
Students in grades 2 and above are permitted to ride bikes to school. It is suggested students have some type of lock for the bike. Students must park the bike in the appropriate location. Students must not ride the bike on the playground or the parking lot during recess. THE SCHOOL ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGED OR STOLEN BIKES.
PARKING LOT/STUDENT PICK UP PROCEDURES
Parking and stopping are permitted only in the designated areas around each school. Because of the congestion that can develop around dismissal time, each building has established its own traffic pattern for picking up children. Please consult your individual building for the procedure.
SUPERVISION OF STUDENTS
The school is directly responsible for supervision of students only while they are on school property
(school buses are considered school property) and during the hours of their respective school day.
The school will cooperate with parents in stressing the rules of safety to and from school and will assist with discipline problems that occur between home and school when possible. However, misbehavior that occurs off the school property is a police matter.
