Every student who travels by School bus is expected to be at the designated waiting point five minutes before the scheduled arrival time. Buses do not wait for students who are not at the designated bus stop at the specified times. Similar is the case during drop off. Parents or authorized guardians are expected to be at the pickup point five minutes before the scheduled bus arrival. In the event that the parent or the guardian is unavailable at the pickup point, the bus will move and bring the child back to school from where the parent will need to collect the child.
