Student Bus Information
Each summer, we carefully plan out bus routes and schedules to reflect the changes that occur from new students starting/moving to a school or our older students who graduate from high school. It’s important to check your child’s school bus information before September because there could be changes to bus routes from year to year. With BusPlanner, it’s easy and quick to check your child’s bus information.
