Going into the 2026-2027 school year, families of High School students who QUALIFY for bus transportation will need to select “YES” when completing the “HIGH SCHOOL TRANSPORTATION SURVEY” as to whether or not they will be utilizing their bus to get to and from school. Families that either select “NO” or do not respond will not be routed at the start of the school year and will need to wait the standard five (5) days to be routed on a bus. If you currently reside within the 1.5 mile boundary from your home school, you do not need to complete the survey.
