Additional Transportation Resources

Drivers check their buses after every run. If an item is found, it is usually returned to the school at the earliest convenient time or to the student the next morning. If you want to place a call to location the item, try Krapf  Bus Company (270-823-0812) or your child’s school the next school day.

District vehicles, including school buses, may be equipped with digital video recorders (DVRs) and cameras so the District can pinpoint issues or concerns and, when warranted, take appropriate disciplinary action. Audio/Video recorders can be a deterrent against acts of misconduct, thus providing a safer environment for students, drivers, and the motoring public. Although DVRs and cameras will be in most buses, they may or may not be recording when individuals are on board the vehicle. The District may use audio/video recordings capturing misbehavior at conferences with parents/guardians as evidence for disciplinary action. A video recording is not required to support a school bus conduct referral written by any district employee.

If your child walks to school, please review the following safety tips:

• Spend time walking with their children and observe how they deal with traffic.
• Choose the route to school that is the safest for their child. Take the same way every day and avoid shortcuts.
• EASD and local municipalities provide crossing guards at several intersections throughout the community. When possible and when applicable, parents of children who walk to school should choose the route where a crossing guard is positioned (see below for crossing guard locations).
• Remind children to demonstrate proper pedestrian behavior. It’s extremely important for them to look left-right-left. Walk facing traffic.
• Pick the place where their child will cross the street. Never enter the road between parked cars or behind bushes or shrubs. Cross streets at corners. Use traffic signals, pedestrian crossing signals, and crosswalks whenever possible.
• Provide children with bright clothing so motorists can easily see them.
