Bus Routes

Reminder: Bus stops will not be changed at the beginning of the school year. Bus stop issues will be looked at in mid-October. Bus stops are placed at centralized locations based foremost on safety and then on the distribution of student households on a given route. Stops are designated to serve the greatest number of students on the route and therefore, by definition, will not be optimal for any single student. Any concerns will be noted and revisited in mid-October.

Do I need to apply for Fee for Service?

To verify a student’s bus eligibility status and determine if Fee for Service registration is necessary for the upcoming 2023-2024 school year, you can find your address on the School Street Listing or log into your Aspen parent portal. A video tutorial and instructions can be found here.  If your student’s transportation type/bus eligibility status is Fee for Service, registration is required. Please note that ELC Community Peer Models do not qualify for FFS and are responsible for their own transportation.
