For students riding the bus, they are required to wear a mask on the bus before entering the bus, will be seated one per seat and every other seat on the bus, will load from back to front and exit from front to back except for PM drop off when they will not be able to load in order.
- Make sure they can show the green “Thumbs Up” on their phones from a completed Daily Health Check as they enter the building.
