Please take a few minutes to go over bus safety with your student. It is our expectation, and the expectation of CDTA, that students are safe, respectful and responsible when riding to and from school. Students who are not adhering to the expectations will receive consequences in accordance with the City School District of Albany's Code of Conduct. Students must be:

sitting or standing appropriately, using the support bars
keeping their hands feet and objects to themselves
using kind words
following the directions being given by the driver or any school adult
keeping the bus clean
keeping track of their belongings

If you have not done so already, please sign up for an Infinite Campus account. Infinite Campus allows parents/guardians to view their student’s assignments, class grades, attendance (including morning arrival time) and state assessment test scores.

Albany's Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) meets on Oct. 17. Learn more about the organization
