BUS PASSES

All students riding the bus (morning or afternoon) must purchase a bus pass and present it to the bus driver so each ride can be marked as used. Passes cost $42.50 each and cover 10 rides. You may purchase multiple passes at once using either of the following methods:

• Online: Purchase your pass online. Please include the student’s full name in the memo field, then email Mrs. Solofra so she can call your student to the office to pick it up.
• In Person: Stop by the school office to pay and pick up the pass directly, or send payment with your student to purchase and pick it up at the office.
