Bus Information

Per school board policy, students living further than two miles from their boundary school will be provided transportation to and from school. 

Per the school board policy buses can not make more than five stops per mile so your student maybe at a group stop which is determined to be most convenient for the majority of students in a neighborhood and may require  elementary students to walk up to one-fourth mile to a bus stop with junior high and high school students walking up to one-half mile to a bus stop.  Bus stops may change from  year to year so please reference E-Link to verify your students pickup and drop off location.  Pickup/drop off locations may vary due to road construction from time to time. This may  cause your students pickup/drop off time to vary.  Drivers can modify their pm routes due to ridership.

Kindergartners that live further than one mile from school will be provided transportation. 

Almost all 4K students have door to door pickup and drop off and may only be released to a parent or guardian that is at least 18 years of age. Door to door pickup/drop off does not apply to summer school.

Use of private roads and driveways are discouraged and any  such use must be authorized by the Transportation Manager on a case-by-case basis. Once approved, roads / driveways must be maintained and a safe turn-around must be maintained  at all times.

If your student is to ride any bus other than their own. Bus notes   must be approved via the students school office staff, students shall provide their note to the driver upon boarding the bus. 

Remind your children about the dangers of the bus stop.  As a bus approaches a stop, remind children to stand back until the bus comes to a complete stop and the driver has opened the student entrance door.  If your child has to cross the street, they need to wait until the bus driver waves them across.  Children should NEVER retrieve a backpack that they may have dropped without notifying the driver FIRST.  Student's are to remain seated, keep hands, arms and head inside the bus at all times.  Throwing anything outside the bus is prohibited. Students are to keep the aisle of the bus clear and the back seats are NOT to be used unless authorized via the bus driver. 

If your student does not quality for busing, the Stevens Point City Bus is FREE to those attending school.
