STUDENT BUSING
Bus transportation is provided without charge by First Student to students living 1-1/2 miles or more from school. Paid transportation is an option for those living less than 1.5 miles from school when space is available on a bus along an existing route.
Students receive their bus route assignments during the registration process. Bus service begins on the first day of classes. Students are advised of regulations for conduct on the bus. Video cameras have been installed on all buses to monitor rider behavior.
