We know many families have been asking about bus availability, and we want to give you a clear picture of where things stand. Each bus route is at full capacity, with 58 students per bus, and all routes are currently full.
We are actively processing bus applications in the order they are received through the Google Form. If your student is added to a roster, they will receive a temporary bus pass right away, followed by a permanent pass once their spot is officially confirmed.
Please note: the Google Form is the only way to apply for busing. If you haven't submitted one yet for your student, please do so as soon as possible so they can be added to the queue.
We appreciate your patience as we work through applications and will keep you updated as spots become available.
