Students must go to the Register Your Ride page to register for the bus. Once the student has been registered, the student will go back to the same page in August to see the route number, the bus stop location, and the pickup/drop off times.

In order to ride the school bus, every student must have a student ID. Please contact your school to get your student ID. Click here to Find My School.

The Call Center can register students for the bus. The Call Center staff will verify that the school and the address in the Student Information System is correct and can then register the student. The phone number to the Transportation Services Call Center is 561-357-1110. The Call Center is open from 6 AM to 6 PM, Monday through Friday.

Once your student has a student ID you will be able to login to the Portal. Please contact your school to get your student ID. Click here to Find My School.

Yes, if your address or school in SIS changes, you must go to the Register Your Ride page and re-register.

Students should report five (5) minutes prior to scheduled bus arrival time.

Parents or guardians are responsible for supervising their children between home and the school bus stop, as well as while waiting for the school bus to arrive.

Bus routes are determined based on enrollment and student's physical address that is two (2) miles or more from their home school.

Per Rule 6A-3.001 of the Florida State Board of Education, students may be required to walk up to one and one-half (1½) miles from their home to their assigned bus stop.  The Palm Beach County Public Schools Department of Transportation Routing Department makes every effort to keep walking distances between student’s homes and their bus stops as short as possible and practical. Regular education students are assigned to a neighborhood stop that serves your child’s school. The safety of students is the first consideration when determining bus stop locations, and the School Bus Routing Offices use several criteria for selecting locations. For example, we do not place school bus stops in locations where students would have to walk across certain multi-lane roads in order to get on or off a bus. We do not change stops based on the proximity of the stop to a residence, the parent’s ability to see a stop from their residence, the fact that a bus passes a house to get to a stop, the lack of sidewalks, or that it may be dark outside.

Students who live within a 2-mile radius of a school can be assigned a bus only if there is a hazardous condition that is set forth by Florida State guidelines. This requirement does not apply to Exception Student Education (ESE) students from pre-kindergarten to 12 grade.

Riding the school bus is an extension of the student's school day; therefore, students are required to follow the same general conduct rules as on the school campus. The Student & Family Handbook and the Student Code of Conduct are both available online. Click here to open the Student Handbook page.

If you have a concern with your child’s bus driver or attendant, report the concern by calling the Transportation Services Call Center at 561-357-1110. The Call Center is open from 6 AM to 6 PM, Monday through Friday.
