Good behavior while riding the bus is essential; disruptive behavior interferes with a driver’s ability to drive safely. Riding the bus is a privilege, not a right. Students are expected to behave in an appropriate manner or face the loss of their bus riding privileges.

All students will obey the driver at all times and any student requested to do so shall report promptly to the principal when instructed by the driver.
Only students who are authorized through the Lamphere Schools Transportation Department may board a Lamphere bus.

Each student shall occupy the seat assigned by the driver and stay seated while the bus is in motion.
Each student shall be at designated bus stops ready to board the bus at the time shown on the schedule in the bus. The driver is responsible for the maintenance of this schedule and cannot wait for tardy students.
Students must keep hands, head and belongings inside the windows at all times.
All students must report to the driver at once if any damage to the bus is observed.
All students must help keep the bus clean, sanitary and orderly.
While waiting for a bus, students must stay off the roadway at all times.
Student riders must wait until the bus has come to a stop before attempting to get on or off.
Students are to leave the bus only at the consent of the driver.
Students are to enter or leave the bus only at the front door after the bus has come to a complete stop.
If it becomes necessary to cross a street after leaving a bus, the student shall observe the following before making a crossing:
Make certain the bus has stopped.

Upon receiving the signal from the driver or adult escort, look both to the right and left and proceed across the street at the front of the bus. Do not cross behind the bus.
