SPS School Bus

Bus registration for the 2026-2027 school year is now open and will continue until Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Students entering grades K-12 are eligible to apply.

The cost to ride the bus for the 2026-2027 School Year is $375.00 per student with a family cap of $750.00 per household.

Parents/guardians will access the bus application in the PowerSchool Parent Portal.

Instructions on how to register can be found on our website. Please read these instructions before submitting a bus application.

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.

  • If your student will be entering grades K-6 and lives more than 2 miles from their assigned school, there is no fee to ride the bus. However, 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.

  • The bus fee will also be waived for families who are direct certified by the state or are approved for free and/or reduced meals. Otherwise, there is a fee for your student to ride the bus.

  • 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!
