Transportation
By bus
Parents may sign up for bus transportation by completing the applicable
lines on the student fee bill. Students residing more than 1.5 miles
from school are entitled to free bus transportation. The student fee bill will indicate if your child is eligible for ths transportation fee waiver. Contact the district office if you have questions about the transportation fee waiver. Except for new students, the full-year bus fee is charged
regardless of when bus service is requested. Bus privileges are dependent
upon compliance with rules established for their safe operation.
Any actions by bus riders that endanger the safety of students are
reported to the school administration and parents. Bus privileges
may be withdrawn for violation of the rules. In addition to
bus consequences, students may be subject to regular school disciplinary
action.
For information about
bus service, please call the District Transportation Department at
847-676-9000.
Activity Bus Service
Bus service to selected stops is available to all students
participating in after school activities at each
school. Bus service for participants in before school activities
is available to paid and free-eligible
bus riders only. Schools will send information on activity schedules
and routes. Students whose bus privileges have been revoked
are not eligible to ride the activity bus.
On Bicycle or On Foot
For safety reasons, only fourth grade and older students are allowed
to ride bicycles to or from school. Bicycles are to be parked and
locked in the school bike racks. The District is not responsible
for lost or stolen bikes. Bike helmets are required by law.
For elementary students, scooters, rollerblades, and skateboards are
not permitted. Junior high students should refer to their handbook
