If you live more than 1.5 miles from your zoned school, bus transportation will be provided. Buses may be routed to pick up students who live closer than this if they would have hazardous walking conditions to school. Also, students with certain physical ailments or handicaps who live within the mile-and-a-half may qualify for bus service.

Safety is very important on school buses. Teach your child to look both ways before crossing the street to get to the bus, to obey the bus driver and to remain seated and reasonably quiet while on the bus. Students who break the rules may be suspended from riding the bus.
