Peaceful School Bus The Peaceful School Bus Program was developed in Lynnwood Elementary School in upstate New York. The program is designed to decrease inappropriate behavior on school buses while creating a climate of respect and cooperation. Peaceful School Bus aims to change the social dynamics on the school bus by building strong, positive relationships among students and the bus driver and teaching students to take responsibility for their “bus route group” and what happens on the bus. It is based on the premise that education can have a powerful and lasting influence on students’ behavior. It approaches bus problems from a positive perspective. More traditional discipline programs rely solely on disciplinary measures taken in response to inappropriate behavior.
Peaceful School Bus Program Goal: To develop a positive and safe environment on the school bus for all students The main goal is achieved by addressing these sub-goals:
Students in each bus route group will have a PLES teacher mentor and an AGIS teacher mentor assigned to each bus to support and encourage our school wide rules and expectations. This initiative will create a bus family where everyone, students and driver, is respected and valued while encouraging positive student behavior. |
