Go to our website https://www.cityview-isd.net/o/cves and click on the transportation button in the middle of the screen. This will have the Bus google form as well as a map with bus route information. This is still a work in progress. We are hoping to be done soon.

If you are making same day transportation changes with your child, please contact your child's teacher and please do so before 2:00pm. We will only accept emergency transportation changes after 2pm and those will need to go through the front office with our Secretary Ms. Stone.

If you have to making a change for transportation in advance please contact your child's teacher through the parent square app, writing a parent note, phone call, or email.

If you pick up your child out front, please do not leave your car when you are in the pick up line. The parking lot west of the pickup line closest to City View drive is open for you to park so you can get out to get your child. Please help us with maintaining an efficient pick up line.

If you have children that are being picked up at two different times, please park in the lot west of the pickup line closest to City View Drive or drive through the pick up line twice. Please do not remain parked in the pickup line.

City View Elementary will be hosting a Blood Drive Friday September 6th in the Big Gym. Donors please check into the front office and make your way to the Big Gym to donate blood! Thank you! We appreciate your help!

Be expecting your child to bring home some information about the blood drive this week.
