8. Transportation Responsibilities of Students & Parents for Regular Transportation & Field Trips
Pupil Transportation Management Policies
• Pupils shall arrive at the bus stop at least 5 minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive.
• Pupils must wait in a location clear of traffic and away from the bus stops.
• Pupils must go directly to an available or assigned seat so the bus may safely resume motion.
• Pupils must remain seated, keeping aisles and exits clear.
• Pupils must observe classroom conduct and obey the driver promptly and respectfully.
• Pupils must not throw or pass objects on, from or into the bus.
• Pupils may carry on the bus only objects that can be held in their laps.
• Pupils must board and depart the bus at locations to which they have been assigned unless they have a note
signed by their parent and building principal for authorization to do otherwise.
Responsibilities of Parents
• Parents of students being transported by Perrysburg Exempted Village School bus should expect their
children to be home anytime after the last dismissal bell rings at their respective school building.
• Parents have responsibility of seeing that students are orderly while awaiting the bus.
• Parents will be responsible for any damage done to a bus by their children and will be required to make
restitution to the Perrysburg Board of Education.
• All half-day kindergartners must have a parent, guardian or caregiver present and visible to the bus driver
in order to be released from the bus midday. If no one is present and visible, the kindergartner will remain
on the bus and return to their building of attendance. The building secretary will contact parent/guardian.
For a complete list of Pupil Transportation Management Policies, please see the district web site.
By signing below my student and I acknowledge that we understand these responsibilities.
9. Emergency Dismissal
It may become necessary to close school early due to weather conditions or other emergency conditions that would
make staying in school unsafe for students. At such time, it is extremely difficult to contact parents to determine
where each child should go. We are asking you to make advanced plans in case this situation occurs. Therefore the
district will send students home based on their normal routine. Please contact the school office for exceptions.
