- Subscription Busing - the District would like to remind parents of the availability of subscription bus services for the school year. Application forms are still being accepted and the district will make every effort to ensure that every student requesting a seat on the bus receives one.
The Board of Education recommends that students attending Stone Bridge Middle School in September who live under two miles from school take advantage of the subscription bus service or carpool to school. Riding bikes or walking to school is not recommended.
Due to community demand for subscription bus services, the transportation department has added additional buses and anticipates honoring all requests for subscription bus service. Requests for scholarships to cover bus fees are available for financial hardship and will be based on the Federal free and reduced lunch eligibility guidelines. Requests will be held in confidence and may be submitted by contacting the Superintendent's office.
