Each scholar, new or returning, must register for Transportation services through their student skyward account. Students will only be scheduled on one school bus to one primary residential address.
A non-eligible student may not ride on a school bus unless they have received a Temporary Scholar pass from the home campus principal or other designated administrator.
Arrive at Pick-Up 5 Minutes Early
Times posted on this site reflect the expected time the bus should arrive during good weather. Inclement weather or traffic congestion may cause the route to run later than the posted time. We ask that all students be at their bus stop 5 minutes before the scheduled time to avoid missing the bus.

BUS DROP OFF AFTER SCHOOL
Dropping Off Kindergarten-2nd Grade Students
Parents or a documented designee must be at the bus stop to receive students ranging from Pre-Kindergarten to 2nd grade. If no one is there to receive the student, the student will be returned to the campus.
It is the responsibility of the parent to see that students who are returned to school are picked up. Any student returned three times will have his or her riding privileges suspended for the remainder of the school year.
Designated Stop/Changes
Students will be picked up and dropped off at the student’s designated bus stop. Only one location for pick-up and drop-off will be allowed.
BUS STUDENT CONDUCT REMINDER
Consequences for Violation of Conduct:
The school bus is an extension of the classroom and campus, and discipline will be administered by campus administrators. All school board policies that apply to student conduct and other student-related activities apply to the school bus.
The driver may pull the bus over and stop to safely manage student behavior.
- If the student refuses to comply with a reasonable request, the driver will report the incident to the Assistant Director or Director upon returning to the Transportation Department.
- The Operations Supervisor shall investigate the incident and notify the driver of the action taken.
Note: In the case of serious misconduct that endangers the safety of other students or the driver, the student(s) may be removed from the bus by any school official or law enforcement official.
