Transportation Registration Information

To comply with legislative requirements for maintaining up-to-date bus lists, all students must register for school bus transportation each year. The registration process includes a review of eligibility to determine whether space is available and whether your student qualifies for bus service. Registering your student does not reserve a seat on the bus; instead, it provides our department with the information needed to assess eligibility and determine overall service level requirements.

2026-27 Bus Registration will open at 8AM on March 2, 2026. 

If your child is eligible for transportation and you registered before May 1, 2026, you will receive route information in late July. If your child is ineligible, you will be notified as soon as we reach your registration for processing. Information about eligibility can be found in the FAQ section at the bottom of this page. 

Late Applications: Registrations submitted after April 30, 2026, including those for new students, will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis for eligible riders on existing routes. Registrations are timestamped and processed in the order they are received. Families who registered on or after May 1, 2026 will be notified of if they receive a route after September. If your family is not assigned a route, you will be placed on a waitlist, and the Transportation Department will contact you if a space becomes available.

Student Safety & Conduct

Parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring their child gets safely to and from their designated bus stop. 

During registration, parents/guardians acknowledge and consent to their student(s) adhering to the School Bus Rules. We encourage you to take the time to review these rules with your child. Additionally, please note that our Student Codes of Conduct applies both at designated bus stops and while riding the bus.

Reporting Concerns: If your child experiences an issue while riding the bus, please contact the school principal as soon as possible to report the concern. Please include the date and time of the incident.

Route Delays & Cancellations

In the event of a significant delay or route cancellation, notifications will be sent through:

📧 Email alerts
🌐 Website updates (posted at the top of this page)
📞 Phone recordings will be sent in the case of an emergency only

During winter and severe weather conditions, bus delays may occur due to road congestion, icy conditions, or mechanical issues. Please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for cold weather, as buses can cool down quickly.

While we make every effort to avoid cancellations, routes may be canceled due to driver shortages, mechanical issues or hazardous weather. The Transportation Department will notify parents as soon as a cancellation is confirmed.

The District does not issue refunds for school bus service disruptions unless the cumulative number of cancellations on a specific route exceeds the financial contribution made by the District for each student rider. The District subsidizes approximately 60% of the total cost of transporting each student. It is unlikely that a bus route will experience a sufficient number of cancellations to warrant a refund during the school year.
