Bus Registration
Students must re-apply for busing prior to each new school year.
Bus registration for the 2023-24 school year will remain open until April 30, 2023. Our bus assignments and routes will be developed from registrations received during this period. Families are encouraged to register during this period.
Riders that register on or after May 1, 2023 will be placed on existing routes pending availability on the route and on a first come, first serve basis. New students to the district that register for transportation will be placed on existing routes pending availability on the route and on a first come, first serve basis.
Registrations will be timestamped and sorted in order of receipt.
Please see our FAQs below to understand our transportation policy and who is eligible for transportation services.
The 2023-24 registration is now open.
*Please note: It is the responsibility of the parents/guardian to get their students safely to and from the bus stop that is provided for them.
Student Code of Conduct
During the registration process for transportation, a parent/guardian acknowledged and consented to their student rider(s) following the School Bus Rules. We encourage parents/guardians to discuss the rules of the bus with their student rider(s). If your student rider(s) brings forward a complaint or concern about an incident or inappropriate behaviour on the bus, please contact your school Principal as soon as possible.
Bus Safety Enhancement Fee
There is a bus safety enhancement fee of $25.00 used to improve the safety for students and staff engaged in district transportation services. This is an individual fee charged annually to each rider who registers for transportation services with the district.
Late fee
There will be a late registration fee of $100.00 for any registration request received after September 1. Exceptions will be provided to families moving into or within the district after the late registration date. Please send us an email if you have questions about this fee.
