Philadelphia School District
Bus transportation is available at no cost to children in grades 1 through 8 who live more than 1.5 miles, but no more than 10 miles from the school. (Note: due to the school’s location, the Philadelphia School Board has extended this service to grades 7 and 8). Pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students are not included in this program. The Philadelphia School Board transportation office determines whether a student is eligible for the free bus transportation. If you sign up for the public bus, you are not entitled to a student transpass.
