TCSD TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT GOALS

Mission Statement: We will provide professional, safe, efficient, and reliable transportation services to all eligible students in the Tooele County area in accordance with state and federal regulations.

Motto: Safe. Professional. Dependable

Goal #1 - Safety

• The safety of our students and staff will be the first thing considered in all decisions.
• Provide the proper education on school bus safety, rules, regulations, and evacuation procedures.
• Operate in accordance with state and federal laws while attaining to the state and national standards for best practices.

Goal #2 - Efficient Operations

• Eligible students will be transported to and from school using the safest, most efficient, and cost-effective means possible.
• Drivers will ensure on time pickup and departure of school bus routes by being prepared and on time to work each day.
• Increase communication to stakeholders through social media, email, phone, and webpage publications.

Goal #3 - Professional Training

• Professional training will be provided for all transportation employees in accordance with state and federal laws.
• Personnel files and driver records will efficiently be managed to ensure each employee is receiving the necessary certifications and trainings required by law.
• Each employee will be evaluated annually to ensure they are up to date with the most recent terms and  regulations attaining to their occupation.

Goal #4 -Vehicle Maintenance

• All district vehicles will be maintained to the highest operating standards possible with the resources allotted.
• Drivers will be diligent in performing daily pre-trip and post-trip inspections on school buses to ensure safety and reliability. An inspected school bus is a safe school bus.
• School buses will receive annual inspections by state certified mechanics to ensure proper mechanical function.

All transportation services as with other related services, are dependent upon the individual education program of the student with special needs. The transportation department will participate in any IEP/504 team decisions in exception to these guidelines. Any changes to the services addressed should be submitted to the local school and the SPED department. This may take up to five days to be implemented.

TRAVEL DISTANCES TO THE BUS STOP:

*Students will receive service that are appropriate to serve them safely in the least restrictive environment as directed by the IEP or 504 plan.

*For students with special needs, curbside service will be provided. However, other service levels, including neighborhood bus stops, maybe used. The district does not provide transportation to daycare outside of district boundaries.

TRAVEL TIME: Travel time may change when modifications are made to a route. The district attempts to limit riding to less than one hour when possible.

DELAYED BUSES: Please wait 15 minutes after the scheduled bus arrival time before contacting Transportation if a bus has not arrived at the scheduled time or if no one is present at the drop off time to meet a special needs student, for safety reasons, the student may be returned to their school or to the Police Department.

ILL STUDENTS: To help prevent the spread of illnesses, students that are sick should NOT be sent to school. A parent or guardian is responsible for taking the student home if the student becomes ill.

LOST ITEMS ON THE BUS: Items left on the bus will be turned over to the school. Students may retrieve lost items the next school day.

CAMERAS: Video cameras may be used on school buses to monitor student behavior. Video images will not be made public.

STUDENTS NOT RIDING: If a student does not ride the bus for 10 consecutive school days, the driver will stop going to that bus stop. To cancel or resume services please call the transportation department at (435-833-1919).

CAR SEATS: Car seats are not required due to the design of school buses. If the IEP or 504 team feels that it is necessary for the safety of students a car seat can be used.

WHEELCHAIRS: Wheelchairs must be safe to transport including brakes and seatbelts that are inworking order.

SEATBELTS: Seatbelts should be used when present.

ASSIGNED SCHOOL BUS: In keeping with the legal requirements to serve students in the least restrictive environment, the transportation department may use a variety of school buses. Although efforts will be made to provide the same bus, it may be changed for operational reasons.

STUDENT SAFETY: At the beginning of each school year, each student will receive instruction in safe riding practices and will participate in emergency bus evacuation drills.

We are committed to the safety of students on the bus and at the bus stop, however, due to inappropriate behavior, students can be exposed to unsafe situations because of their own or others' behavior. These situations may require parent assistance and participation in order to ensure the safety of students when traveling to and from the bus stop.

Utah Risk Management has required all district employees who will be driving a district insured vehicle to complete an online Defensive Driving course every year. To access the course please click the link below:
