Jessey DeVaney is the Transportation Supervisor & Certified School Bus Driver Training Instructor for the Maplewood Richmond Heights School District.

There are four buses which provide daily route service to and from the Early Childhood Center. Once these routes are completed, four buses go on to provide route service to and from the Elementary School, then three buses serve the High and Middle schools on combined routes.

Students living less than a mile from their school are considered “walkers” and not eligible to ride the buses unless there are safety concerns. Influencing this decision is the age of the child and the character of the streets and environs that must be navigated. Generally, High and Middle school students are confined to the one-mile rule. Younger children are not required to cross Big Bend or Manchester on foot and are provided bus service if either road is on their path to school.

In addition, Early Childhood students are required to have an adult or older sibling wait with them in the morning and meet them at the bus stop in the afternoon. Drivers will not let these students off of the bus unless there is someone, identifiable by the driver, to meet them.
