A written request or the above form is received by the Transportation Coordinator from the parent/guardian and must be made no earlier than June 30th preceding the school year and no later than August 14th preceding the school year. A written acknowledgement and all information for the babysitter must accompany the parent/guardian request. The bus stop will be the appropriate stop for the residence of the babysitter. The only exception to this rule will be for a new student arriving in the school district.
