Bus fees are likely to change from year to year, depending on number of buses required to accommodate all bus enrollees. An updated bus fee table is available on our website or can be obtained from the Transportation Office.

When planning to move please contact the Transportation Office with the address you are interested in order to check busing/seating availability beforehand. Bus routes and bus sizes are planned during the summer for the school year ahead. It may not be possible to accommodate new locations at a later point during the school year. When bus availability has been confirmed, please indicate your planned moving date so that seating can be pre-reserved. Please inform the Transportation Office about your definite move about one week before so that passenger lists can be updated and bus companies / bus drivers can be informed.

Students can get off the bus and walk home without adult supervision as of grade 5 in Middle School. Younger students are required to be picked up by an authorized adult. Exceptions are possible if a written waiver is received, stating that the parents are allowing us to let the child get off alone and that the parents will assume full responsibility from the moment that the child has left the bus. This should only be considered if the bus stop is within easy walking distance to home, if no major roads are to be crossed and if the child is able to recognize the dangers involved in traffic and know the neighborhood well.

Bus drivers of our regular Junior School return buses will tell the child when the home bus stop is reached throughout the school year. Bus drivers of our later After School Care / Middle School and Senior School return buses will announce bus stops for the first few days, until students have become familiar with their stop.

It is not possible for the bus to wait on a passenger as it would keep passengers waiting at all subsequent bus stops and delay the punctual arrival at school of all passengers on board. We are asking all bus passengers to be waiting at their designated bus stop at least 5 min. prior to scheduled time of departure.

If a child misses the bus in the morning, alternative means of transportation needs to be made. The School cannot be held responsible for additional costs accrued by alternative transport.

If the child misses the bus in the afternoon, they need to report to the duty person in the bus park or report to our Security staff, for contact to be made with the parents.
