Most schools provide this information through a dedicated parent portal or transportation app (like Here Comes the Bus). Routes are typically finalized a week before the school year begins.

Wait at least 10–15 minutes past the scheduled time before calling the dispatch office. Traffic, weather, or a substitute driver can cause minor delays. We offer real-time GPS tracking so you can see exactly where the bus is on your phone in the School App .

Generally, students are only allowed to ride their assigned bus to their assigned stop. For one-time changes, school requires a written note signed by a parent and approved by the Principal.

When do I need to stop for a school bus?

• Safety is a two-way street. Here is the standard rule for motorists:
• Two-lane road: Vehicles in both directions must stop when red lights flash and the stop arm is extended.
• Multi-lane road (with a median): Only traffic following the bus must stop.
• Multi-lane road (no median): All lanes must stop.

What are the "Danger Zones"?

• The Danger Zone is the area within 10 feet of the bus in any direction. This is where it is most difficult for the driver to see a student.
• Pro Tip: Always cross at least 10 feet (about five giant steps) in front of the bus, never behind it.

What are the rules for behaviour on the bus?
Think of the bus as a "moving classroom." Key rules usually include:

1. Staying seated and facing forward.
2. Keeping the aisle clear of backpacks.
3. Using "inside voices" so the driver isn't distracted.
4. Keeping hands and heads inside the windows at all times.

What happens if no one is at the stop to meet a young child?

• For Kindergarten and early elementary students, drivers & Attender’s are typically instructed not to release the child unless a parent or designated guardian is visible.
• If no one is there, the child will remain on the bus and be returned to the school for pickup by the Parents.

How is bullying handled on the bus?

• The bus driver’s primary job is to operate the vehicle safely, So we have our Attender’s they do monitor behaviour.
• Most buses are equipped with internal cameras to record audio and video.
• Incidents should be reported to the school administration, who will review the footage and take disciplinary action.
