Transportation Guidelines and Frequently Asked Questions

Check the Bus Stops Link to see available stops for each school.

All elementary students (K thru 6) are expected to travel up to 0.75 miles to the bus stop or school. Middle school students may have to travel up to 1.5 miles to the bus stop or school. High school students may have to travel up to 2 miles to the bus stop or school.

All students are required to have a bus pass to ride the bus. This is for the student's safety. The bus pass tells the bus driver who the student is, where the student needs to be dropped off, and if the student needs to be met by an adult.

The Bus Pass Application is only available online. Bus Passes will be sent to the school once they are processed.  PLEASE NOTE: A separate application must be completed for each student applying for a bus pass.

Annual Roundtrip - $360, Annual One Way - $190. Semester Roundtrip - $190, Semester One Way - $100. (Exceptions for Special Education Students.)

You may be eligible for a free or reduced bus pass. Complete the Supplemental Form. provide proof of income from all sources for all people living in the home as listed on the form and our office will contact you to schedule an appointment for document approval. PLEASE NOTE: Documents will be retained in our office, therefore it is highly recommended copies are provided since we are unable to make copies. 

Refunds will only be provided for unused bus passes when a student moves out of the school district.

There is a $10 replacement fee for a lost or modified pass. Contact our office at (714) 424-5080 for an appointment and to coordinate the payment process. We only accept check or money orders in the office. To pay using a debit/credit card, an invoice will be uploaded by Transportation to MySchoolBucks once arrangements have been made.

For students who have moved, address verification is required before a new bus pass can be issued. Contact the school for the necessary required documents. 

Eligibility is determined by the student's Individual Education Plan (IEP). Questions regarding Special Education Transportation should be directed to the student's Teacher or Case Carrier. Students who are eligible will still need a bus pass to ride the bus for their safety. If the student does not have a bus pass, please contact Transportation at (714) 424-5034 and specify that your request is for a special needs student.
