JUST STOP!
In Ontario, the fine for passing a school bus with it’s stop arm activated and flashing lights on is $400 to $2,000 and six demerit points for a first offence. Each following offence is $1,000 to $4,000, and six demerit points. More importantly, school buses carry our future. Please watch for students!
What to do in EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURES
When the actual temperature is –38° C or colder we may shut down the school bussing system. If this happens we will send an alert by email/text and post the cancellation on our website. Schools usually remain open. We do not factor in wind chill because if we did, your buses wouldn’t run for a good part of the winter months. For more information click here!
Please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather when riding the bus.
