Transit

If you do not have your 2024/2025 bus pass, you will be expected to pay the full bus fare of $2.25/ride. 

• This is the new rate as of April 2025.

Bus passes will be available for purchase online (through Powerschool) and students may pick up their bus passes at lunch from the Finance window. 

• Bus passes are $57.75 for the month

GETTING ON AND OFF THE BUS
• Be safe while waiting – stand back from the curb so your bus can pull over safely.
• Form an orderly line when boarding your bus (front door), and let passengers exit first.
• Make sure you pay your fare ($2.25 or one ticket) or show your bus pass to the driver.
• Leave space for everyone; move to the back of the bus when boarding.
• Be courteous and allow your driver to concentrate on operating the bus – please don’t move
around when the bus is moving, and hold onto the handrails when standing.
• Exit from the back door and allow those with mobility needs to exit first.
