Wantagh Schools Issue Bus Safety Tips

In Wantagh, Bus Passes are issued by the first day of school to all eligible riders in grades K-12. 

Bus Passes must be shown in order to board buses each day, and are not transferable. We want our students’ ride on the Wantagh School Buses to be a pleasant and safe one, so we expect all passengers to adhere to the following important -safety regulations:

• Show Bus Pass when entering the bus, both morning and afternoon.
• Cross 10 feet in front of the bus, and wait for the driver’s signal to cross. 
• Never cross behind a bus.
• Wear seat belts.
• Keep head and arms inside the vehicle at all times.
• Remain seated until the bus comes to a full stop.
• Enter and leave the bus only when it is completely stopped.

Remember, the safety of our bus riding students is a cooperative effort on the part of the community, parents, drivers and bus companies. So let’s all work together to make this a year of safe riding for Wantagh students.
