Zion Lutheran School provides the bus as a service. The bus route is drawn up by the Board prior to the opening of school. These are the rules posted in the bus for the safety of all the passengers.

• 1. Follow the directions of the bus driver.

• 2. Sit in your assigned seat and face the front of the bus.

• 3. Stay in your seat until the bus has completely stopped.

• 4. Keep hands, head, and feet inside the bus at all times.

• 5. No food, drink, or gum is allowed on the bus.

• 6. No loud talking or shouting is allowed.

Failure to follow these rules, will warrant a written warning from the bus driver to the principal. The principal will notify the parents. After 3 written warnings, the student will be suspended from riding the bus for one week. If the behavior continues and the student receives another 2 written warnings, he/she will not be allowed to ride the bus for the rest of the school year.

Your responsibility as parents is to see that your children are at the stops on time and you make provisions to pick them up immediately upon delivery. The driver cannot wait and the property owners cannot provide shelter for your child; nor are they liable for accidents and injury to your child while on their property. Please give this your utmost attention.

Please bear with the driver for the first days while times are firmly established. The bus will leave school at 3:20 p.m. You can figure approximate return times accordingly.

See the map for specific directions on pickup and drop off procedures

In order to maximize the safety for all students, the following procedures will be strictly followed.

Drop off before school

            The safest way to drop off your children is the left drop off lane near the gym.  If you are walking with your child(ren) into the building, park next to the church (see map for areas designated as walk-up parking) and enter the building through the brown door (next to the first grade rooms) or the covered entrance near the church.   Do not park under the trees and walk across the pick up/drop off lanes.

Pick up after school:

            Use the two lanes designated for pick up.

            Remain in your car.

            The teachers will escort the children to the cars. As the cars move forward the children will be taken to the first two cars in the lines.

Do not park under the trees and walk across the pick up/drop off lanes.  Students waiting in the entrance near the gym will be released only to cars in the pickup/drop off lanes.

Students walking into or out of the building with their parents must use the brown doors or the covered entrance near the church.  Children leaving with their parents will only be released through the building.
