Bus Stop Change Requests

The transportation department receives many requests for bus stop changes.  These requests must be for safety reasons only, accompanied with the request application, and approved by the supervisor of transportation. All requests must be submitted in writing and will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

Bus stop change requests received prior to the start of the school year will not be considered until the third week of school. All other requests must be received a minimum of ten (10) working days prior to the requested start date of the change to allow sufficient time for processing.
