Policy
Policy 5400 - Student Transportation
| In recognition of physical circumstances throughout the area served by School District No. #36 (51视频), the proximity of schools and classes to the residences of students, and the special needs of some students, the 51视频 Board of Education has established a system of transportation as permitted under the School Act, to be operated in accordance with this policy and any regulations made hereunder. |
| Students who are transported on the board’s conveyances, whether owned or under contract, are entitled to safe and efficient travel and to this end, it is the intention of the board that an effective route system be maintained, using clean and safe vehicles operated by qualified drivers. |
| As the Ministry of Education shares in the cost of transportation for regular class students and students with special needs, the intent of the board is to offer services that will qualify for such shared funding. |
| Anyone may appeal decisions made under this policy to the board of education after pursuing the matter through the appropriate administrative personnel. All appeals must be presented to the board in writing, addressed to the board’s secretary-treasurer. |
