Bus Information
Please note:
If you want to ride a different bus or get a temporary one day bus pass you must do the following:
Bring a note from home indicating the route/location and the date you want to ride
Bring one dollar for a temporary pass
Turn the note into the office in the morning to receive a temporary pass
Present the temp pass to the bus driver
Students who do not have the school issued temp bus pass will not be allowed on the bus.
The school year is just around the corner—and that means it’s time to get your Bus Pass (Z-Pass) ready for a safe and smooth ride!
Our Transportation Department is now accepting and processing bus pass applications for the 2025–26 school year. If your student will be riding the bus, they MUST have a Z-Pass to board and exit the bus—no exceptions. These passes are part of our commitment to student safety and real-time accountability.

How to Get Your Bus Pass:
Best Option – Pick It Up Early:
Come by the Transportation Office before school starts to pick up your pass in person and skip the wait!
Can’t Make It? No Problem:
If you’re unable to pick up the pass, it will be delivered to your student’s school site and given to their teacher before the first day. Each school will receive a list of who receives a pass to ensure every student is covered.
Why It Matters:
Your student’s Z-Pass is their ticket to a safe and reliable ride! It helps us track when and where students get on and off the bus—and gives families peace of mind.
And here’s the exciting part:
Once all passes are distributed, we’ll be launching a Parent App that allows you to track your student’s ride in real time!
