One of the most important skills of the bus monitor is communication.

2. The bus monitor shall be on the bus from the time the first student is picked up in the morning and in the afternoon until the last student is dropped off.
3. There shall be a designated location on the school bus, preferably in the back, for the monitor to sit so all children can be monitored and given maximum supervision, and to do periodic walk-throughs and checks.
4. The monitor shall be alert at all times to the needs of the students and to interact when necessary. The monitor is prohibited from sleeping, or using electronic devices for personal use, while performing work duties when students are present on the bus.
