Transportation
Hours of Operation: Monday - Friday 7:00 am - 4:30pm
***Due to a continued shortage of bus drivers, please be advised that there will be frequent substitute bus runs that may impact your students' pick-up and or drop-off times. We will make every attempt to notify elementary parents of these changes daily via our messaging app. Please assist us by ensuring your contact information is always up-to-date. ***
We understand that families are eager to learn their student's bus information. However, planning bus routes for over 5,500 students to 50+ locations is monumental. Bus information is shared as soon as it becomes available.
Please email transportation@nasdschools.org with questions or concerns; a link is available below. Please allow up to 48 hours for an email response.
Requests for new stops will not be reviewed for two to three weeks.

Information
Bus Safety
One of the most dangerous scenarios we deal with, is drivers who ignore school bus stop arms and pass stopped busses. To deter and catch violators, the district utilizes "Bus Patrol." Bus Patrol uses multiple exterior cameras to identify violators. Suspected violators are assessed by District police, and when warranted, issued a citation and $300 fine.
