The School Bus Safety Coloring Book

All children will ride a school bus at some time during their kindergarten through 8th grade experience in District #35. The same safety guidelines apply for field trips or rides to and from school. The School Bus Safety Book was created to review ten important rules when riding the bus.

How The Bus System Works

Students attending West and South Schools ride together, while Central students maintain separate routes. In the morning, South/West school buses first drop students off at West and then continue to South. At the end of the day, buses first pick up at South and then continue to West before starting the routes. Routes are designed so students picked up first in the morning are dropped off first in the afternoon. The following are approximate times for the routes:

Approximate Times For Routes

SOUTH & WEST SCHOOLS
Morning First stop 8:05 a.m.
Last stop 8:35 a.m.
Afternoon First stop 3:20 p.m.
Last stop 3:45 p.m.

CENTRAL SCHOOL
Morning First stop 7:40 a.m.
Last stop 8:05 a.m.
Afternoon First stop 3:45 p.m.
Last stop 4:15 p.m.

A Board of Education policy requires the use of seat restraints by all bus riders of all grade levels.  As a part of the orientation at the beginning of the school year, children receive information and instructions on the busing plan, the importance of restraints, and expected behaviors on the bus. Bus services will not be available to riders who fail to use restraints.
