Removal from the bus will be at the discretion of the building principal and may occur following one or more infractions/Incident Reports
10. The number of students scheduled for our buses brings our buses close to or at capacity. Therefore, we regret that it will be impossible to honor requests for a child to ride a bus other than that to which he/she was assigned.
