Fall Transportation for ALL STUDENTS (K thru 12)
We are working on bus routes for the 2012 - 2013 year. Please call the Bus Barn ASAP
if you have not completed a Bus Info Sheet and/or if you have moved or plan to move
prior to school starting. 660-646-6309
Even if your student does not plan to ride the bus, please call us to let us know. Our
routes change some from one year to the next so it is best not to assume things will be
the same as last.
If you have any questions or aren’t sure if your child is eligible for transportation, please
give us a call.
Getting this information before school starts helps us ensure that students are delivered
to and from school in a safe and timely manner. Thanks for your help!!

Dewey Parents: This year all Dewey students will be issued reusable arm bands to assist in bus and
route identification. Please make sure your child wears the armband at least through August 26.
** New policy for 2011-2012 school year: Daily bus changes MUST be called in to the Bus Barn no later
than 2:30. This timeframe allows drivers to accomodate those changes. Your cooperation and understanding
are appreciated.
Please note the following:
Stop locations listed on the above are subject to change as ridership needs change.
Stop times listed on the above are estimates
Stops may be eliminated if no riders are present for three days.
Students are required to have a note from a parent to ride a different bus or to be dropped off at a different location.
Parents of rural students are asked to call the Bus Barn on mornings your child(ren) is not riding the bus.
Call the Bus Barn if you move or you need to change your transportation schedule.
