The school bus monitor works with the driver to be sure all the students are safe on the bus. They secure seat belts, wheelchairs, necessary supports, etc. The monitor maintains discipline, sees that students remain buckled in their seats, and reports problems to the schools. The monitor seeks emergency medical help when needed. They are provided on the buses where they are most needed.
Bus monitors can only work with students in the area in and around the bus.
Have your child fully clothed, toileted and ready at the bus stop 5 minutes before pick-up time. Accompany your child to the curb. If your child has not ridden for more than 3 days, the bus will stop coming until you call the Special Services Office to restart your child. Notify the Special Services Office in advance if your address, phone number or day care arrangements change. The driver cannot come back because of traffic and other route trips.
