Having trouble finding your scholars bus information, click on link below and put in your address to assit you

http://www.infofinderi.com/ifi/?cid=SI3EP1SK4WO

• Estimated bus stop times are available through the Infofinder-I tool, but for the first few days of school, it is recommended that students are ready at the bus stop approximately 10 minutes prior to the estimated stop time until regular route schedules are established.
  

Transportation for Pre-K and Kindergarten Students

• Students in Pre-K and Kindergarten MUST be registered for bus service before they can begin riding the bus home from school. Registration forms are available from the student's campus for processing. Once the student has been approved and routed for bus service, the parent/guardian will be notified that service may begin.

  Just as in the past, students in Pre-K and Kindergarten must be received from the bus by an approved person at the bus stop. Parents/guardians of Pre-K and Kindergarten students who require bus service will be issued a Personal Identification Number (PIN) once their student has been approved for bus service. Any person who is at the bus stop to receive the student must provide the driver with the PIN (either verbally or visually) in order to receive the student from the bus. If the person who is present to receive the student cannot provide the PIN or there is no person present to receive the student, the student will be returned to the school for the parent or guardian to pick-up.

ALL students will be requied to wear IDs this years.

Campus Expectation

Students are expected to wear their ID badges during the school day. It is the expectation for all teachers during threshold to ensure students are wearing their identification card and appropriately dressed for school according to the dress code policy. The ID badge will be used for transportation, checking out books, and purchasing food items from the cafeteria. Students will not be allowed to participate in campus events if they lose or misplace their identification card. Teachers please help us communicate this information to parents and add to your classroom expectations and rules.

Dismissal

All bus riders will take their ID badges to and from school. It is the expectation for the teacher to ensure the ID badge is tied to the student backpack. This will help to minimize the loss of student badges and issuing of replacements. Teachers will collect identification cards for car riders, walkers, bike riders, and daycare riders prior to dismissal. The ID cards will remain in the classroom with the homeroom teacher.

Tracking Badges

All teachers will be provided with a google document by grade level to track the number of temporary badge distributions. If a student does not have a badge for three consecutive days then he/she will need to purchase a replacement. Please document on the spreadsheet. This will allow us to collect data and make adjustments for improvement. In addition, any damaged badges beyond reasonable recognition must be replaced. If needed, the tracking form should be completed daily by 9:30am.

Level of Communication

1st Day: Teacher contacts parent via class communication mode: Dojo, Tag, Remind or Email (warning)

2nd Day: Teacher contacts parent via phone & Parent Notification Form (PNF)

3rd Day: Teacher notifies admin by adding student to ID Request Form

(An administrator/counselor will contact the parent)

Request for Student ID Badge Replacement

A replacement card must be purchased once a student has reached three consecutive days without an identification card. Students who lose their IDs may purchase replacement badges for $5 in the Attendance Office before school. Parents will be notified and directed to complete the replacement form using a link located on the school website and weekly newsletter.

Cost of Replacement

• Temporary ID Badge $1.00 (After 3 consecutive days)

• Full Replacement ID Badge $5.00

• Student ID (card only) $3.00

• Lanyard $3.00

• Sleeve $1.00
