In its successful program to prevent and control violence, vandalism and misbehavior by students on school buses, the Salem (Oregon) school administration utilizes a four-step reporting and followup process. Should an incident occur, the first step is mailing of a misconduct notice to parents. This notice is followed by a warning letter. If misbehavior is serious or continuous, a conference may be held between administration officials and parents or guardians. The final step for serious or repeated offenses is suspension of the student's transportation privileges, with right to appeal. A full-time Transportation Pupil Conduct Supervisor coordinates the program for the approximately 9,000 students who are transported daily to and from Salem's schools. (Author)
