Bus Transportation Schedules

Thank you to all of the Kings Glen families who completed the transportation survey. If you did not get to complete the survey and live in bus boundary, your child will still receive bus service. Bus stops and route information were shared with families via the ParentVue accounts on August 10. All staff and students riding a bus will be required to wear a mask. For more information about bus transportation, including how to access the Bus Delay Notification System, visit the Transportation page.
