Changing student demographics requires the Transportation Department conduct a review of the bus routes each year and apply adjustments where required. School bus routes are designed to service eligible students attending their English catchment school whose application was received on or before the deadline date of May 31.​

Although our Transportation office accepts applications throughout the school year, priority is given to the applications submitted between January 30 and May 31.
