These forms will be available from March 1st through April 1st in ParentSquare. After April 1st, the electronic request will close, and parents will have to request transportation in-person at their school.

You will need a registered ParentSquare account to complete your child's form. For information on registering your ParentSquare account, please see our ParentSquare Information webpage.
