Extracurricular Transportation - Discipline

Students must follow all school vehicle rules.

If a student causes a disruption or hazard on the vehicle, the driver, instructor, coach or adult sponsor and the student will have the opportunity to share their perceptions of the problem. If the Transportation Director finds that there has been an infraction of vehicle rules, they may take the following action:

1. On the first infraction, the student will be warned that following any further infraction they will be declared ineligible for transportation to the extracurricular or co-curricular activities for one event;

2. On the second infraction during a semester, the student will be declared ineligible for transportation to the extracurricular or co-curricular activity for one event; and

3. On the third infraction during a semester, the student will be declared ineligible for transportation to the extracurricular or co-curricular activities for the remainder of the semester.

Based on the severity of the problem as it relates to respect and safety for others, the principal may bypass step #1 and/or step #2 above and immediately declare the student ineligible for transportation for two weeks or for the remainder of the semester.
