Our mission |
Our mission is to provide safe and efficient transportation to the students of Rush City Schools. Riding the school bus is a privilege, not a right. Students are expected to follow the same behavioral standards while riding school buses as are expected on school property or at school activities, functions or events. |
|
Permission to Ride a Different Bus |
Students will be assigned to one PRIMARY bus and we ask that they ride only that bus. In rare circumstances a student may also be assigned to an ALTERNATE bus (daycare, grandma's, etc.) IF they use this alternate site on a regular basis. In this situation, we ask that a regular schedule be established for each stop and that you provide the classroom teacher and transportation department with that schedule.
Due to COVID-19 NO bus passes will be allowed this year. If you student is not able to ride their scheduled bus, it is the parents responsibility to transport.

Moving or Changing Daycare Sites |
If you are planning on moving or changing your daycare site, please contact the Transportation Department at 320-358-3562. A move or change may change your child’s bus that he/she rides and the time of pickup and drop-off.
|
Discipline on the Bus |
Students will be notified of bus rules and will be expected to conduct themselves in a manner which will ensure safe passage and good care of the buses. Our primary concern is to provide the safest transportation possible. When a child becomes unruly on a bus, the child endangers up to 71 people. Students who do not maintain an acceptable level of responsibility on the bus may lose riding privileges. Parents will be notified when a child exhibits repeated unacceptable behavior.
