Bus– Due to the extensive routes, buses do not accommodate courtesy riders. It is recommended that an adult meet kindergarten students and/or any student who is the only one at a bus stop. Parent requests or complaints regarding bus service should be directed to the transportation department at 547-7810.
Bicycles– Students riding a bicycle (or skateboard) to school must wear a helmet. (s.316.2065 F.S.). Once on campus, bicycles and skate boards must be walked, parked, and locked in the bike rack. Please note that skateboards may not have lockable access, however, they will remain outside in the bicycle rack areas. Roller blades and scooters are not permitted on school grounds.
