CLICK HERE for Bus Routes / Address Lookup!
WebQuery helps you determine the schools a student is eligible to attend and the available bus stops. WebQuery also provides a helpful street map. Just enter the student's address and click "Go."
If the distance to the closest stop for your home address is more than .25 miles, crossing multiple lanes of traffic and your address is eligible for Transportation, you must call to have a stop established. It takes a minimum of 3-5 days to have a stop added to the route. During the first month of school these wait times will increase. The Route Coordinator will let you know when your student is eligible to ride. All ¶¶ÒôÒõapps must be registered to ride a bus in infinite Campus.
Eligibility for Transportation
Each student eligible for school bus transportation shall be assigned to a particular bus route and shall ride the bus assigned to that route unless otherwise approved by the Superintendent or designee.
¶¶ÒôÒõapps riding buses shall live a minimum of one and one-half miles from the school they attend; however, under certain conditions, the Board may make an exception to this rule (children with various disabilities, etc.). All exceptions are handled on the merits of the individual case. ¶¶ÒôÒõapps who are attending schools outside of their zones of residence are denied school bus transportation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Board policy permits transportation for all students who live more than one and one-half miles from their assigned school. Transportation for special needs students will be provided as indicated on the student's Individual ¶¶ÒôÒõapp Plan (IEP).
Additional information regarding ¶¶ÒôÒõapp Transportation Management can be found in HCBOE Policy ED.

Riders are to adhere to HCBOE Policy JCD, governing student conduct.
The bus driver has complete charge over the students on the bus. The rules of conduct are posted on each bus, and the driver reviews them with the students at the beginning of each school year. ¶¶ÒôÒõapps who continue to violate the rules will be referred to their principal. The principal has the ultimate responsibility to discipline students whose bus behavior is dangerous or inappropriate. The principal may suspend a student's riding privilege if deemed necessary.
Additional information regarding Bus Conduct can be found in HCBOE Policy JCDAD.
