(Sept. 4, 2024) The Transportation Department is aware of the issues families are having with the Zonar MyView app and are working to resolve the problem. An update will be provided when available.

Students are assigned to bus stops and specific bus routes. Students must ride only the bus they are assigned to. Students shall board and exit the bus only at their assigned bus stop.

When both parents reside in the same school boundaries, the students may ride from both residences as needed, call the Transportation Office.

Please call the Transportation Office if there is a change in address, phone number, head of household, name or change in ridership since initial registration. This will help keep records up-to-date and allow proper bus assignment. 

St. Francis Area Schools policy for reimbursement is as follows:

• Children must attend a private or parochial school outside of St. Francis Area Schools boundaries.

• Reimbursement is only for miles traveled in St. Francis Area Schools boundaries.

• Reimbursement is per family.

• Mileage reimbursement for non-public students will be $250.

• Reimbursement request must be received no later than June 28 of the current school year.

• Requests received after that date will not be accepted.
