Transportation
The transportation department aims to support and enhance the educational process by ensuring that their journeys to and from school and school activities are as safe and secure as possible. With a dedicated team of professionals, a fleet of state-of-the-art buses, and an unwavering commitment to student safety, we take pride in being the driving force behind the education of our future leaders.
Our department consists of over 60 drivers, as well as many other certified license holders (coaches, substitutes, teachers, and administrators), one shop foreman, one secretary, one routing specialist, and one transportation supervisor. Our system operates 118 one-way routes. All routes and extra-curricular trips total over 578,734 miles per year, using about 102,965 gallons of diesel fuel. Our buses transport 3,775 students one way during regular routes.
Find Your Bus Route & Zoned School
Use our Transportation Lookup Tool to find both your child’s zoned school and their assigned bus route.
Before You Use the Bus & Zone Finder Tool, Please Note:
- This tool does not assign your child to a bus. It simply shows the bus number and stop that serves your address. To officially assign your child to a bus, you’ll need to complete the school enrollment process first. This also applies if you've recently changed your address.
- If your child is already assigned to a bus, this tool can help you confirm the bus number, pick-up location, and pick-up time.
- Be sure to enter your full address, including your ZIP code, for the most accurate results.
Transportation Lookup Tool
Simply enter your home address and your child’s grade level. The system will show which school your child is zoned to attend, along with available bus route details like stop location and pick-up/drop-off times.
Please note: Routes may be adjusted throughout the year based on enrollment or safety needs.
Transportation Notice

Request for after-school programs may be approved pending available space on the bus.
