Bus Schedules

School Bus schedules for general education students will be available in your ParentVue account. The schedules will continue to change as new students register. Please check your student bus assignment again before the first day of school for the most accurate school bus and bus stop information.

Remember, only students who have registered for transportation will be assigned to a school bus and bus stop. If your general education student’s bus information is blank in your ParentVue account, please contact your student’s home school to register for transportation. Assigning a bus and bus stop for your student may take 5 to 10 business days after you register for transportation.

Students who will be riding a special needs school bus will be contacted by your student’s school bus driver or school bus assistant before the first day of school.

Transportation information for students enrolled in specialty programs such as Governor’s School for the Arts, Advanced Technology Center, The Brock Environmental Science Program, the Technical and Career Education program, etc. will be distributed by your program coordinators.
