Busing

Student Safety on Buses

The following safety rules for all bus riders have been established to ensure a safe and pleasurable bus ride for all. Students must:

  • stay seated and remain seated until the bus comes to a complete stop
  • demonstrate courtesy and respect to the bus driver, bus monitor and other bus riders
  • use a quiet voice
  • not throw objects of any kind on the bus or out of the windows
  • upon arrival, wait for the bus to leave before crossing the street to allow a full view of traffic
  • use mobile devices in a manner that follows HKIS Responsible Use Agreement

Consequences for disregarding bus rules will be handled in accordance with the Middle School’s Discipline Philosophy.

Changing Bus

Depending on availability, students are allowed to ride buses other than their assigned bus with a valid bus card. This is to ensure tracking of students and preventing overloading.

NOTE: Students without a bus card are allowed to ride the bus subject to availability and have to pay $50.
