Rules For Student Conduct on School Bus

Rules for student conduct on school buses are available in the Bus Rider Safety handbooks.  Handbooks are distributed to every bus rider.   The following list is posted in all buses:

• Stay in your seat and remain seated at all times.
• Do not eat or drink on the bus.  (Water only)
• Use inside voices.  No yelling.
• Keep head, hands, and feet inside bus
  

Students failing to follow the posted bus rules will be subject to progressive discipline by the driver and school. The driver will first remind the student of the infraction and ask for the student to obey the rules. If the student refuses to obey the rules the driver will either move the student to another seat in the bus and/or write a safety report. Student discipline generated by a safety report is handled by the Transportation Department and/or school administration.

Unsatisfactory Conduct Reports

The goal of Belton ISD Transportation Department is to provide safe and orderly transportation service.  Student misconduct is handled in a progressive manner as follows:

• Driver verbally instructs student to correct behavior.
• If incorrect behavior continues, driver will re-assign seat.
• Repeated misconduct will result in a safety report filed to the Transportation Department and/or campus administration.
• Multiple safety reports may lead to suspension of bus privileges.

For more detailed information on bus conduct and student discipline, please see the Belton ISD Bus Rider’s Safety Handbook.
