Parents/guardians should review and update student address and contact information in the parent portal (Sapphire) by July 30th to help ensure transportation is in place for the first day of school. Changes made after July 30th may result in transportation being delayed.
Bus routes, stops, and times will change in the parent portal as the transportation department creates system updates this summer. If bus route information is missing, we appreciate your patience as we update our system.
