Meridian Public Schools Student/Parent Transportation Handbook Changes.
The Meridian Board of Education recently authorized changes to the Transportation Handbook. Specifically, an adjustment was made to the “Temporary Changes” portion of the Handbook. The previous requirement for “Temporary Changes” was a notice of 72 hours. The new policy is as follows:
· Temporary Changes to the scheduled transportation for a student may be made upon written request at least 24 hours in advance from the parent/guardian. The timeline for 24 hours advance notice is no later than 2:00 pm the day prior to the request.
· Temporary Changes must be for a currently established stop.
· Changes must be directed to the Meridian Transportation Office using forms that are available on-line or at the school office.
· The Transportation Request must include the student’s name and destination and must be signed by a parent/guardian.
· The decision to approve the request will be based upon seating capacity of bus. We cannot guarantee seating and because we attempt to maximize seating on buses for efficiency, it is unlikely that large groups can be accommodated.
· If we are not able to honor the request, the Transportation Department will notify the parent/guardian.
· Request will be honored in order of submission.
· School personnel, upon receipt of your written request, will authorize your request and/or complete a bus pass that will given to the driver.
· The revisions will begin on January 2, 2019.
