 Any questions or concerns regarding student transportation will be most effectively served if emailed to the above address rather than telephoned in. 
 

We remind all parents of students using bus transportation that, as indicated in your Student Transportation Handbook, AM pick-up times are always approximated and, depending on road conditions can vary plus or minus ten minutes.  Please make sure your child is at their assigned stop 10 minutes prior to the pick-up time indicated on their bus card.  We thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
