The trimester pass will be for students participating in after school sports or club and the one day pass will be for students staying after school for other reasons. Students with the trimester pass will need to hold onto the pass for the trimester and present to the driver when they board the bus. The one day pass will be collected from the student when they board the bus. Students will not be allowed on the activity bus if they do not have a pass. Please stop by the Main Office to ask for a pass.
