Williston Schools Bus Information
2026/2027
Now updated for 2026/2027!
Exciting Announcement: PickUp Patrol to launch for 26/27 School Year
Williston Schools will begin using a system called PickUp Patrol to manage and track our dismissal process. PickUp Patrol (PUP) will save time for our office staff and reduce classroom interruptions - and provides you with a convenient and secure way to make changes to your student’s dismissal plans. Most importantly, PUP helps ensure that all students are accurately dismissed and accounted for each and every day.
Learn more about it on our PickUp Patrol resource page, and watch for emails with additional information in early August.

Special Note: Students Riding Other Buses
Students may not ride buses other than their usual routes. A standing schedule for childcare, after-school activities, etc. can be set up with the front office of your school.
We do not allow students to ride buses for playdates, etc as one-time or rare event. It is important that we know who is on the buses regularly for both safety and behavior reasons. This also allows our drivers to get to know and build relationships with their students. Thank you for your cooperation.
Buses are not able to turn around on the following streets; bus stops will be at the nearest intersections: Highlands Drive, Overlake View, and Christmas Lane
The Slate Barn Road bus will not turn onto Slate Barn, but will stop at the intersection.
Hill Closings
On the occasions it is determined a Williston school bus will not be driving on a hill road during the morning pick up, we hope to be able to contact families early enough for you to get students to a stop at the start of the hill to catch the bus.
When the hills are closed in the morning, it includes hills on the preschool bus routes. Alternatively, during the afternoon bus runs, we will contact families to advise you that the bus will need to drop children off at the start of the hill, and you can meet the bus there if necessary. If no one arrives to meet younger students, they will be brought back to school until arrangements are made for them to be picked up. Please talk with your bus drivers to let them know if you are comfortable letting your child walk home from the drop off location.
We will use the automated calling system to send a message to families on the hill roads.
All buses stop at both Allen Brook School and Williston Central School
