Transportation
We know you share our concern for the safety of the children that ride our buses. We employ 60 highly skilled bus drivers that are certified with 24 hours of training by state certified instructors, as well as ongoing driver monitoring and retraining each year.
We are working hard to ensure a bully free and safe environment on each bus. We hope to enlist your help as a parent. Encourage your child to communicate with their bus driver, teacher or administrator if they don't feel safe. We ask that you impress upon your child the importance of following bus safety rules and to obey the bus driver at all times. Our fleet is equipped with security cameras so we can best ensure everyone's well-being and protection.
We provide transportation for students with 21 in town routes, and 8 special needs routes. We provide transportation for students who live in the outlying areas of Sweetwater County with 4 rural routes. We transport 1,074 students out of the 2,331 enrolled. Last fiscal year we drove 377,808 miles, which amounts to roughly 2,158 miles per day based on 175 days of school. We currently use majority of our resources between the hours of 6:00 am to 9:00 am with approximately 200 bus stops and again in the afternoon between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm. Please contact the bus garage at 872-5590 with any questions or concerns.
