Talk With Your Child

Before your child rides the bus to school you can help ensure their safety on and off the bus by discussing these safety rules.

  • Get to the bus stop ahead of time.
  • Wait for the bus on the sidewalk and avoid horseplay.
  • If you have to walk around the bus, wait until you are given a signal by the driver and then walk about 10 feet in front of the bus so you can be seen.
  • If you drop something as you are getting on or off the bus, ask the driver or another adult for help.
  • Wait until the bus comes to a complete stop before trying to get on or off.
  • Hold the handrail when getting on or off the bus.
  • Sit quietly and straight up in the seat.
  • Keep your hands and all other body parts inside the bus.
  • If you have to cross the street when you get off the bus, take a few steps and wait for the bus driver to motion you across the street.
  • Go straight home when you get off the bus.
  • If someone bothers you at the bus stop, tell the bus driver, an adult at school, or your parents.
