Self Awareness
What type of language should you use on the bus?
Appropriate language (no cursing, vulgarity, harassing or abusive language).
When should you follow the bus driver's instructions?
How can you demonstrate the pillar of service while on the bus?
Report any incidents to the bus driver at the appropriate time.
Pick up any trash you see and throw it away when exiting the bus.
How can you show scholarship on the bus (other than doing your homework)?
Arrive on time to your bus stop in the morning. Get to your bus as soon as possible at departure.
You should keep your hands, feet, and objects to yourself on the bus.
Although you should follow adult directions the first time they are given in every area of the school, why is it extremely important to follow directions on the bus?
Anything that takes the driver's attention from the road (such as telling a student to sit down) puts everyone's safety at risk - the driver and students, the people in other cars, the little kid crossing the road with his mom or dad as the bus goes by.
What sort of incidents should be reported to the bus driver?
Bullying, harassment, and vandalism are examples that should be reported to the bus driver as well as to another adult at school.
How does getting to your bus stop on time show scholarship?
Getting to your bus stop on time shows you value your education. Being on time to the bus stop is good practice for the responsibilities you will have as an adult.
When is it okay to stand up while in the bus?
Why is it important to sit down completely in the seat on the bus, rather than kneeling or standing?
It's important to sit all the way down on the bus because the seat in front of you acts as a "seatbelt" on the bus and keeps passengers from flying forward in case of an accident.
