Riding on Another Student's Bus - IMPORTANT INFORMATION
In the past, parents have been able to send a request to their school asking for their child to ride a bus home with another student for childcare purposes.
Due to COVID-19 and our efforts to manage bus ridership, assigned seating, and support case investigations, buses can only serve the students that are assigned to the bus.
