Bus Transportation Procedures
Bus transportation is provided for any student living 1.5 miles or more from our school. Riding the bus is a privilege. However, if rules are not followed, it is a privilege that can and will be revoked. Ms. Sharon Harris, the Bus Transportation Supervisor, will be happy to discuss any concerns with you. She may be reached by phone at Aiken High School at 803-641-2507 during the school day.
The standard consequences for breaking the rules are:
First offense | Written warning |
---|---|
Second offense | Final warning |
Third offense | 1 day bus suspension |
Fourth offense | 3 day bus suspension |
Fifth offense | 5 day bus suspension |
Sixth offense | 10 day bus suspension |
Seventh offense | Suspended from bus the remainder of school year |
The consequences may be more stringent based upon the severity of the violation. Each time a student receives a bus disciplinary report, the parent must sign and return it to school. Offenses are cumulative. For further information, please refer to the Code of Student Conduct.
