Transportation
Approximately 1000 students in the Gulf Islands ride a bus or water taxi every day. Operating the school district transportation system is a complex undertaking. Thank you students and parents for respecting the policies and practices designed to maximize efficiency and access while ensuring safety for all riders.
Access to district student transportation services is provided in accordance with Board Policy 5.80 Student Transportation and Transportation Administrative Practices (Section T).
