Transportation Services will be provided for students to and from their school of attendance, consistent with Oregon Revised Statute 327.043.
Transportation Eligibility is based on the distance from a student's home to their school.
Distance will be determined by District Transportation practice, in accordance with Oregon Administrative Ruling 581-023-0040 (1)(e). "Mile(s) from School" means the distance a student lives from school, measured from the closest, reasonable, and prudent point between the school property identified by the local board for that pupil's attendance and the property where the pupil lives. The distance will be measured over the shortest practical route on maintained public roadways or over existing pedestrian facilities capable of meeting the requirements listed in ORS 332.405 (4). Online mapping services such as Google Maps do not measure the distance to the nearest accessible point of school property and will provide measurements that are significantly different than the measurements used by the School District.
All students eligible for transportation service will be assigned to specific bus stops for morning pickup and afternoon drop off.
For safety reasons:
Guidelines for walking distances to bus stops are:
A block is 1/10th of a mile, or 528 feet.
Some students may be assigned to stops that exceed these distances if local street infrastructure does not support school bus travel. Bus stops will generally not be placed in cul-de-sacs, dead-end streets, or on private roads.
Bus schedule changes must be made through your student’s school.
Any change must be made through the school front office and be a permanent change (more than 30 days)
