Bus Rules and Expectations
Waiting for the bus:
Wait in an orderly fashion well back from the road with a parent/ guardian. Only approach the bus when it has come to a full stop. Do not cross the road to get to the bus until the driver indicates it is safe.
At Stittsville the students learn the three simple rules: sit down, sit back, sit quietly.
On the bus:
- students board the bus holding on to the railing at all times;
- students walk directly to their seats and sit down;
- students remain seated on their bottoms until ready to leave the school vehicle;
- students refrain from eating and drinking on the school vehicle;
- students keep their hands and feet to themselves;
- students speak quietly to their neighbour;
- students follow the driver’s instructions at all times;
In accordance with Ottawa-Carleton District School Board Procedure PR.530.SCO, behaviour infractions may result in bus privileges being withdrawn.
