Bus registration for the 2025-2026 school year will begin at 4pm on Monday, May 5 and continue until Tuesday, June 17 – the last day of school. Students entering grades K-12 are eligible to apply.
The School Committee voted to bring back the bus fees for the 2025-2026 school year. The cost to ride the bus is $375.00 per student with a family cap of $750.00.
Massachusetts General Law requires school departments to provide transportation for any student in Grades K-6 who live more than 2 miles from their assigned school. If your student is planning on taking the bus, you still MUST complete a bus application, even if you live more than 2 miles for their assigned school.
Parents/guardians will access the bus application in the PowerSchool Parent Portal.
Instructions on how to register can be found on our website.
PLEASE NOTE:
Parents must complete a bus application EVERY YEAR for EACH CHILD. Students are not automatically placed on a bus for the following year.
Bus applications will be processed in the order they are received. There are limited seats and we cannot guarantee all students that meet the deadline will be placed on a bus. We will not have a waiting list or reopen the application in the fall!
BUS REGISTRATION NIGHT
We will be holding a bus registration night on Thursday, May 8 from 6-8pm at the Stoughton High cafeteria. This event is for any family looking for assistance with the bus registration process. Translation services will be available.
