Busing & Transportation

Getting Ready

To confirm you child’s bus route or if your address or other information has changed please call 519-824-4119. If your child is a late registration you may receive your transportation information late. It is a good idea to review the busing policies and procedures with your child and be aware that bus safety may include the placement of cameras on some buses.
