Bus Routes
Bus Stops
- Bus stop information for will be communicated during the week of Aug. 19, 2024.
- Elementary bus stops may be up to .3 (one-third) of a mile from the closest accessible location of bus travel.
- Middle and high school bus stops may be up to .5 (one-half) of a mile from the closest accessible location of bus travel.
- Note: We’ve clarified this wording because the closest accessible location of bus travel is not necessarily a home address.
Please note: Due to safety precautions, CHCCS no longer lists bus stops on the website. Instead, families receive email messages with this information. If you did not receive this email or if you have a question, please contact your school's data manager. If you received an email and are having issues with the web page loading, please wait patiently for a few minutes to allow your letter to load. There is lag due to the large number of people trying to access this web page.

"Here Comes the Bus is an easy-to-use website and app* that enables you to see the location of your child’s school bus on a smartphone, tablet, or personal computer. This way, you know when the bus is near your stop, so you can send your child out at just the right time. If your district has the Student Ridership service as well, you can use the Here Comes the Bus website and app to see when your child has scanned on and off the bus." - Here Comes the Bus
