Limited Transportation
Inclement Weather Routes
Winter may bring weather conditions that require school schedule delays or closure. Even when road conditions in the valley appear passable, bad weather on the hill often causes hazardous driving conditions and impacts the district’s ability to operate buses safely. Expect buses to be late during severe weather. Please read the information below and know where the bus will pick up your student if we have to operate on limited transportation routes. Please call transportation with any questions: (253) 891-6400.
