School Bus Safety

Transporting our students to and from school is a very important part of our day. Please watch each week for a transportation safety tip in Good News Friday to assist parents and students in understanding their role in helping our transportation system.

School bus safety is everyone's responsibility. A team effort is required by transportation and district personnel as well as parents and students to ensure that each child travels to and from school safely each day. Transporting children is a shared responsibility between home and school.

The district asks that parents reinforce with their children the importance of obeying the bus rules. Such rules ensure the safety and welfare of all young riders. If a child repeatedly violates these rules, thus jeopardizing everyone's safety, the student may ultimately be denied the privilege of riding the bus. Thus, parent support for behaving appropriately in transit is essential.

If you have a problem or concern related to the bus, you are encouraged to write the driver a note or to phone (513) 897-8511 to reach the bus garage. Please try not to interrupt the bus schedule by talking directly with the driver while he or she is on the route.
