Helium Balloon Safety on School Buses

As a reminder helium balloons on our buses are not allowed due to safety concerns. In the Standards for Utah School Buses and Operation, Page 127, Appendix 3, pupil rules, it reads:

-Pupils shall remain seated and keep aisles and exits clear,

-Pupils shall refrain from throwing or passing objects on from, or into buses,

-Pupils are permitted to carry only objects that can be held on one's lap,

-Pupils shall not carry hazardous materials, nuisance items, and animals onto the bus,

-Pupils shall respect the rights and safety of others.

Helium balloons can create a safety hazard when allowed on a bus and will not be allowed on the bus. Please make arrangements to pick up balloons from the school if your child rides a bus.

Thank you,

Jordan School District Transportation Department
