Welcome!

The Anacortes School District provides transportation to and from school for PreK-12th grade students who live more than one mile walking distance from their home school. We utilize over 25 buses to transport student to and from school and extra-curricular/sporting events. Our goal is to provide both a safe and enjoyable school bus ride for all students.

Our buses are equipped with GPS units and onboard cameras. These systems aid in locating buses in emergency situations, help with routing efficiency and assist our drivers and schools in supporting positive student behavior on the bus.

We encourage students to arrive at their bus stop 5 minutes prior to the scheduled pick-up time and ride the bus to AND from their regular bus stop.


In case of adverse weather conditions including snow and flooding or unexpected emergencies, school closure and/or changes in transportation schedules may occur. During these emergency situations, be prepared for possible delays involving school bus pick-up/drop-off times and locations.

 

For younger students, parents and family members are encouraged to wait with and meet their students at the Adverse Weather Routes stop. Younger students may not be allowed to get off the bus if they are unsure of how to get to their house or do not have an older sibling or neighbor to walk with. In these situations, students will be returned to school to wait for a family member to pick them up.

 

For all students, timing at Adverse Weather Routes stops could be several minutes earlier or later than normal stop times. Plan and dress accordingly for changing weather conditions.

 

For students with special transportation needs, families will be given information about changes to their stop time or location for adverse weather when changes are necessary.
