A Note from the Transportation Office

Thank you to everyone who has already completed the transportation survey. Every family should complete the survey—even if your child will be a car rider and will not need bus transportation. Your responses help the Transportation Office plan routes and services effectively for the upcoming school year.

The survey will close on Wednesday, July 29, 2026. After that date, transportation changes must be made by contacting your child’s school directly.

Complete the Transportation Survey:

For questions or technical assistance with the survey, please submit a help request:
