BUS TRANSPORTATION

The Metro Transit Authority (MTA) provides four buses that are available daily.  NSA students may ride to and from school using these services.  If you have any questions regarding MTA services, please call MTA customer service at 862-5950.

Students must abide by all rules and regulations concerning school bus safety when loading, riding, or unloading MTA buses.  Any violation of these policies and regulations shall result in disciplinary action by the principal or by MTA.

DRIVER’S LICENSE ACT

Senate Bill 2340 is now in effect and requires any person under the age of eighteen to be enrolled in school or have a valid excuse not to be enrolled in school in order to secure or retain a driver’s license.  The school will be required to notify the Department of Safety when any student fifteen years old or older withdraws from school.

 A student is considered withdrawn with more than ten (10) consecutive or fifteen days total unexcused absences in a single semester (suspension, expulsion, and confinement in a correctional institution are unexcused absences).  A student who loses his/her license because of withdrawal from school has one opportunity to have that license reinstated by attending school thirty consecutive days.  A second violation results in the suspension of driving privileges until the age of eighteen.
