Our primary purpose is to transport students to and from school safely, efficiently and dependably, to provide the highest quality of support for the educational programs by delivering the best possible transportation services. It is our goal to provide a safe, efficient pupil transportation service. To accomplish this goal, there are responsibilities and rules for each member involved in the transportation system, staff, students and parents. We ask parents to become familiar with the rules and procedures and to discuss them with their child. Students choosing to not obey these rules may be suspended or expelled from transportation for up to one year.
Students being transported are under the direction of the school bus driver.
Be sure your child is at the bus stop 3-5 minutes prior to the assigned stop time. Instruct your child in the safe manner of walking to and from the bus stop. Instruct your child to stand in a safe place to the side of the road when waiting for the bus and to not disturb adjacent property. In order to become an Arizona School Bus Driver, a person must meet very specific requirements as set forth by federal and state law. Drivers for the Deer Valley Unified School District are expected to maintain discipline while operating the bus in a safe manner.
