Mentor Schools-Bus Safety Procedures

As a reminder to our students, please adhere to the following bus safety procedures for safe street crossing in front of the bus:

Tell the driver you need to cross. When students cross in front of the bus, the 8-way warning lights and STOP arm will be activated. Note: If you are unsure about where to cross the street, ask the driver to explain.
After exiting the bus, move directly to the sidewalk and out of the DANGER ZONE.
Move forward of the bus to a spot about ten feet ahead of the front bumper.
Turn back to look at the bus driver and make eye contact.
When the driver gives the signal, cross the street while checking continuously for oncoming vehicles.
Upon reaching the far edge of the bus, take a look back to the rear of the bus to be sure no vehicles are passing the bus and running through the stop arm.
After reaching the opposite side of the street, move onto the sidewalk and proceed directly home.
