Bus Route Boundaries
All in-district students who live 1.5 miles or more from Jack Daley Primary School or Thatcher Elementary School are eligible for bus transportation, per Governing Board approval (October 2023).
Students living within 1.5 miles are considered within walking distance and are not eligible for bus service.
Please refer to the map on the left to determine if your residence falls within the approved transportation boundaries.
The bus route links above provide detailed information about bus stops, route maps, and pick-up/drop-off times for Primary School, Elementary School, Middle School and High School.
Bus Notifications via Remind App
Parents and guardians please note:
Due to a high volume of school activities and an ongoing bus driver shortage, we occasionally need to combine bus routes, which may result in delays when transporting students home.
We communicate these changes through the Remind app to help keep families informed.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we prioritize your student’s safe and timely transportation.
To receive bus-related notifications via Remind:
- Find the bus route your child rides.
- Follow the texting instructions below, or
- If using Remind on a computer, join the class using the corresponding code (beginning with @).
(Click HERE for more information on using the Remind app.)

Bus Rules
Riding the bus is a privilege. Students who are riding the bus must conduct themselves properly on the bus. We are concerned about the safety and well-being of all students who ride the bus. Bus drivers will warn the students when they misbehave. If further problems occur the driver will fill out an Incident Report on the student. If this problem is not corrected the privilege of riding the bus will be suspended and the parent will be responsible for the transportation of the student to and from school.
Students must be at their bus stop 5 minutes before scheduled pickup time. They must be orderly while waiting for the bus. Parents must not chase the bus down in their vehicle to load or unload their students from behind the bus. For safety reasons, students who are late or miss the bus must provide their own transportation. Students must never walk behind the bus. They will always be crossed in front of the bus.If a child gets on the wrong bus he/she will be brought back to the school, where the Parent will be responsible for transportation home. Kindergartner students will not be dropped off without an adult or sibling present. Students must be respectful of all property surrounding the bus stop. Students who damage school property or the property of other passengers will be required to pay for the damages. All buses will be monitored by video surveillance.
Students and parents must understand that the lives and safety of all students may depend on their conduct and strict observance of school bus rules. Students must be respectful and follow the Bus Driver's instructions at all times! There can be no horseplay, loud yelling or inappropriate language, eating, playing of music, use of tobacco or cell phones.
Bus Rules Cont.
Students cannot bring onto the bus: balloons, large posters, fireworks, drugs, glass containers, large instruments, weapons, skateboards, scooters, insects, animals (with exception of service animals), or any other items that would interfere with passenger safety. Please do not send open containers of food (cupcakes, cakes, cookies, etc.) or large items that cannot fit on your student's lap that obstruct the driver's view or be in the aisle. Your students cannot apply perfume or deodorants while on the bus. All sport equipment must be in their backpack or in a bag (ex. football, bats, basketballs, etc.) Drivers are not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged personal items. For safety reasons, the bus
driver has the sole responsibility of making these decisions and following these procedures.
Students must stay in their seat and remain facing forward and out of the aisle until the bus comes to a complete stop. Students must not yell out windows and must keep all body parts inside the bus.
Daily bus routes are for transporting students TO and FROM their home address or designated stops to the district property, NOT for parties or get togethers.
THE BUS RULES MUST BE OBSERVED OR BUS PRIVILEGES WILL BE DENIED
