711.2 - Conduct on School Transportation

All persons utilizing school district transportation shall conduct themselves in an orderly manner fitting to their age level and maturity with mutual respect and consideration for the rights of the school district vehicle driver and the other passengers.

The school district vehicle driver shall have the authority to maintain order on the school district vehicle. It shall be the responsibility of the driver to report misconduct to the building administrator.

Students and employees who fail to behave in an orderly manner may be subject to disciplinary measures.  Other persons who fail to behave in an orderly manner may be asked to leave the school district transportation and may no longer be permitted to use the school district transportation.  The building principal has the authority to suspend transportation privileges for students or employees or implement other appropriate discipline.

The board supports the use of video cameras on school vehicles used for transportation to and from school as well as for field trips, curricular or extracurricular events, and other events.  The video cameras will be used to monitor behavior and may be used as evidence in a student or employee disciplinary proceeding or in determining appropriate consequences for other individuals.  The video recordings will be maintained as required by state and federal law.
