If your child plans to ride the bus this fall, register them today! Registration closes at the end of July!
Yes, school just let out last week, and no one is ready to think about returning. BUT, scheduling and planning bus routes takes time to ensure efficiency and safety. Durham Bus Company requires all riders to complete a new registration form yearly (one per student, please). The registration form will be open through July 25th.
We also encourage all parents to download the BusZone app for the most up-to-date, accurate information from Durham Bus Company and real-time location updates on their child's route!
Please Note:
Every student who plans to ride the bus MUST be registered by the end of July to guarantee transportation during the first week of school.
Students who register after July 25th may not be added to a bus route until September 1st.
Every rider is allowed
1 (one)
morning pick-up location and 1 (one) after-school drop-off location.
You may choose to have your child picked up from a location other than your home as long as that location is consistent and within the boundaries of your residence school. i.e., if your child attends Amazonia but your In-laws live in the Minnie Cline Zone, your child may not ride the bus from Amazonia to Savannah or vice versa.
Students on an in-district transfer are not eligible for transportation unless they will be meeting the Helena Shuttle bus in the High School parking lot.
Parents of younger children should plan to meet their children when they get off the bus. While this is not required, it is in the best interest of your child's safety.
However, an adult is required to meet students who ride the Helena Transfer Bus at SHS. These students can arrive at SHS anytime after 2:40 pm. Please plan your child's pick-up accordingly.
Students who do not normally ride the bus are not allowed to ride home with a friend who is a bus rider.
