Archbold Area Schools provides transportation for students who reside in the predetermined bus route areas. We take great pride in providing quality transportation. Our bus drivers are highly qualified with an average of 12 years of bus driving experience. Our bus drivers get the privilege of being with your child at the start of the school day and the end of the school day.
Our hope is that we can be a smiling face and a source of encouragement for them to start and end their day.
Safety is our top priority when it comes to transporting your child. Our drivers go through extensive training to be sure that we are using the most effective practices and procedures to ensure safety.
Bus Passes may be obtained for students to go home or to a child care provider.
No bus passes will be issued for social purposes even if the students ride the same bus.
Students will be allowed no more than 2 locations/buses this year to promote student safety and route efficiency.
Examples of 2 locations/buses:
1: Pick up at home
2: Drop off at a childcare provider.
