Students are expected to follow bus safety rules, including arriving at the bus stop about 10 minutes early, staying seated, keeping aisles clear, and following safe loading/unloading procedures (including only crossing in front of the bus when red alternating lights are flashing and the driver signals it is safe). Guest riders are not permitted, and most food/drink is not allowed on the bus (except a personal water bottle).
