How bus discipline will be enforced
LAST SPRING a school bus was involved in a train
accident. Fortunately, no one was seriously Injured.
The incident, however, created a backlash of
parental concern about the safety of children riding
v the school bus.
The factor of safety had little to do with the
physical equipment or the skill of the driver. The
main concern was the behavior of children on the
bus.
The Gaylord Board of Education met with administrators.
parents and representatives froqi the
bus drivers association. The group agreed that
. something should be done to improve the safety and
behavior of students on the bus. -
— - As a result of these meetings, the following rules
have been adopted. If your child rides a Gaylord
school bus, you may wish to go over these rules
before school starts.

Regulating pace of aisers
DURING THE PAST YEAR, officials of the
Vanderbilt Area Schools have become increasingly
concerned with student fundraising practices and
the economic impact that fundraising has on the
Vandefbilt community.
Like many small schooLdistricts, we are finding
that fundraising focuses cm a small group of highly
supportive people, and we are recognizing that fundraising
is a collection of activities that need to be
harnessed so these supporters are not alienated by
what has been a continual stream ol fundraising requests:
At a recent meeting of tne board of education the
of student fundraising was taken, when the
board authorized the formation of a committee
whose members would research the fundraising
