Bus transportation is provided for all kindergarten students who live more than a half-mile from school. Students in grades 1 through 5 must live one mile or more from school to be eligible for bus transportation. Special education students or students with medical issues who do not meet the distance requirement may be allowed to ride the bus under some circumstances. Riding the bus is a privilege and not a right. Students who do not follow the Student Bus Conduct Code may receive consequences from the Principal and may lose their privilege to ride the bus. If this happens, parents/guardians will be responsible for transporting the student to and from school. Please refer to School Committee policy EEA-R, Transportation of Students for specific information. Students who will be picked up or dropped off at a stop other than his/her own address must complete "Alternate Bus Stop" form, which can be obtained in the office.
