Bus and Public Transportation Information

Below you will find information about school transportation.  If you would like your child to take the school bus or receive a Metrocard please return the appropriate form. (The links will download PDF forms for you to fill out and return to school.)

Bus Routes 2023-2024

  • There are now Social Groups for our school’s bus routes on Konstella. If the bus is running late, breaks down or any other pertinent information needs to be shared school administration will use them to communicate with families. Note that messages will be delivered according to your Konstella settings, so you may want to check those if you would like to receive immediate text messages, for example. You can check your preferences under the “wheel” in the app (and then look for Notifications”) or Account Settings >> Notifications on a desktop.  More information about Konstella is here.
  • The DOE has also rolled out an app, powered by VIA, that they say will allow you to track your child’s bus. It requires a NYCSA login and is avaialbe for iOs and Android. More information and links to download it, are here.
