At Onyx Montessori, we have established clear policies and rules for our school bus transportation services:

1. Punctuality: Our transport department is dedicated to ensuring prompt arrival for school drop-off and dismissal. Our drivers make every effort to adhere to the designated schedule.

2. Timely Service: We understand the importance of timely transportation for our Onyx students. Our drivers are conscious of the need to pick up and drop off students in a timely fashion, ensuring they arrive at their destinations promptly.

3. Safety: The safety of our students is our top priority. Our drivers adhere to all traffic regulations and maintain a safe driving environment for all passengers.

4. Conduct and Behavior: Students utilizing our school bus services are expected to adhere to appropriate conduct and behavior. Disruptive or unsafe behavior will not be tolerated to ensure a safe and respectful environment for all passengers.

By implementing these policies and rules, we aim to provide a professional and efficient school bus transportation service that prioritizes the well-being and comfort of our Onyx Montessori students.

Parents/guardians play a vital role in ensuring their child/children comply with the following rules. It is their responsibility to review and ensure their child/children understand and adhere to these rules at all times.

Procedures:

1. Morning Routine:

   • Accompany your child/children to the bus stop and ensure they board the bus safely.
   • A parent/guardian or designated adult must remain with the child/children until they board the bus.

2. Afternoon Routine:

   • Be punctual for the afternoon pick-up to avoid delays.
   • Instruct your child/children regarding their designated pick-up and drop-off points.

3. Alternative Transportation:

   • Make appropriate arrangements for transportation when there is no school bus service on specific school days.

4. Communication:

   • Notify the Front Office by 1:00 pm through a written note or phone call if there are changes to your child's transportation plans.

5. Misbehavior Consequences:

   • If a student's misbehavior is reported and confirmed, the bus driver has the authority to file a complaint with the school administrator.
   • Depending on the severity of the situation, the student may face suspension from riding the bus.

By understanding and abiding by these procedures and rules, parents/guardians contribute to the smooth operation of our school bus transportation system and ensure the safety and well-being of all students.
