Link to Regular Bus Route Times
Please note, the district has just enough bus drivers at this time (6 drivers for 6 routes). The Alternate Bus Routes will remain as one option for use in the case of a situation where the district does not have enough drivers to cover the routes (if 2 or more drivers are out sick on one day for example). If a situation were to occur, the district would communicate with the families involved and utilize one of the following options (depending on the circumstances):
-
Cancel one bus route for the day
-
Have one bus route picked up later in the morning and/or dropped off later after school
-
Implement the Alternate Bus Route Schedule for a period of time
-
Other option(s) as needed
