TRANSPORTATION REQUEST

We are planning for the new school year!  With that, we require that all families complete the transportation request form to get set up with busing.  The online form is here: DUS Transportation Request . If you need a written form instead of the online form please scroll to the bottom of this page. You will need to turn the written form into your child's school so that we can process your request.

PARENT BUS STOP APP

Ride 360 provides quick access to your child’s routing information, which can include the bus stop, route, driver and bus number. Ride 360 can also utilize GPS data to give parents and guardians access to information on where their child’s school bus is, the planned bus path and what time it is expected to be at their scheduled bus stop. School districts may also send notifications to subscribed users of Ride 360 to inform them of general information such as school closings and delays.
