[samscommunity] Interference on School Buses

MESSAGE FROM ST. ANDREWS MIDDLE SCHOOL:



As you are aware discipline problems on buses is and has always been an
issue.  With a driver transporting far more than a classroom size group
of children at their back, problems do arise.   The transportation
department wants to get students to and from school safely. A copy of
the law is below.  Please share this information with your
child/children.

of pupils to and from school or any lawful school activity or while
passengers are entering or leaving the bus nor shall any person
willfully fail or refuse to obey a lawful order of a school bus driver
