INFORMATION FOR BUS SERVICES FOR STUDENTS IN THE FALL
At the beginning of each school year the Transportation Department receives over two hundred requests or changes for bus service. And there are over two hundred additional extra trips to administer in September, too! Combined with schools being closed over the summer, bus drivers not working during July and August, and the regular daily operations, our manpower resources are overextended and strained during the month of September. We would like to remind staff and parents that:
-
- Any new requests for bus service received after June 30 may be processed within a four week period or longer after the start of the school year in September. This will allow the transportation department sufficient time to accommodate all requests and provide the least amount of disruption while adding new bus stops on a route.
- A parent/guardian will be responsible for arranging alternate transportation until they receive confirmation for services directly from their school.
- If further information is required please contact your local Transportation Office:
Moose Jaw – 306-694-7553
Assiniboia – 306-642-4112
- After June 22, 2015 please forward a copy of all requests for bus service to your local transportation office for the 2015-2016 School Year.
