Our bus is our community. We treat our communities in EWSD with respect. These guidelines are used throughout school buses within the district.

1. We listen to our driver; we are respectful to everyone
2. We sit down until the bus stops at our stop
3. The aisle needs to be clear for people getting on and off, and emergencies. We keep our belongings and bodies out of the aisle.
4. We respect other people's bodies and do not touch them
5. We use calm voices and kind words
6. We keep everything inside the windows, including our bodies and our belongings
7. Everyone wants a clean bus. We do not eat, drink, or chew gum on the bus.
