“My 1st Ride” is a school bus orientation program for first time riders. This program is offered free of charge to Calgary Board of Education and Calgary Catholic School Division students. The program is designed to educate the parents and kindergarten children about how to ride the school bus safely. My 1st Ride will provide an opportunity for parents and kids to learn about safe school busing practices and the important role parents play to ensure that students are in safe hands, not only on the bus, but on the journey from home to the school bus stop.
