BUS TRIPS & TIPS

Please follow these few rules:

  • Bus times are approximate. In the morning, your child should be at the bus stop ready to board the bus 10 minutes before the time indicated; 10-15 minutes during the first 2 weeks of the school year
  • Students should be visible to the bus driver – not waiting in cars, in the house, on side streets, etc. -  so the driver knows to stop
  • The District uses UNIVERSAL bus stops that best serve the District as a whole; bus stops will not be added unless a safety issue is involved
  • Only call for changes if you are the parent of both a Highview student and a Miller student and you do not receive the same stop for both children
  • Our buses travel throughout the District; it is possible for students to be on the bus as much as 45 minutes to an hour, particularly those students traveling outside of the District
  • Parents/Guardians of kindergarten students must be at their assigned stop in the AM and PM; the students will be brought back to their school building if they are not met at the stop
  • Parents are responsible for their children before the students get on the bus and after they get off the bus
  • Riding the bus is a privilege; we ask all parents/guardians to discuss with their child how to behave properly on the bus. The expectations for student behavior in the schools apply on the bus as well
