Whenever possible, we are asking parents to provide transportation for their students to and from school. Bus capacity will be reduced to comply with applicable social distancing measures in place.
Bus Safety
A limited number of students will be scheduled per bus in accordance with physical distancing protocols (three feet).
Students will board the bus according to a seat assignment and sit one per seat (unless riders are from the same household).
Students over the age of four and staff will be required to wear a face covering while on the bus. Disposable face coverings will be provided to students if they are needed.
Bus drivers and attendants will also wear cloth face coverings or face shields.
Bus drivers will perform wipe downs of all frequently touched surfaces following every school delivery.
Bus Routes: Student's bus route, stop and time information will be communicated one week in advance of school reopening. High school students will have access to METRO buses if needed. METRO has implemented its own health and safety protocols which include fewer riders, required masks and touchless fares.
Drop-Off / Pick-up Zones: A designated area will be clearly marked near the school entrance for families to drop off or pick up students. Parents are not to park, exit vehicles or congregate at drop-off/pick-up locations.
