Transportation
Please complete the Transportation Request form if you would like your student to ride the school bus. Please note, for students in 9th - 12th grades, the walking distance is 2 miles. Please see AR 3541 Transportation Routes and Services. The bus schedules for the 2023-24 school year are posted here: Bus Schedules 2023-24 (rev. 11.13.2023)
- Please be sure to verify the bus number and stop times.
- Students should arrive at their designated stop at least 5 minutes before the scheduled pick-up time. The ten-minute morning pick-up window precedes the posted stop time by 5 minutes, and extends 5 minutes thereafter.
- Afternoon stop times may vary depending on the number of students riding the bus.
- On minimum days, afternoon stop times will be earlier relative to the actual dismissal time.
The buses may run late the first two weeks of school. After the first week of school, buses will not service stops that are not being used by students. If a student needs to utilize a deactivated stop, the student must obtain a buss pass from the high school office and present it to the bus driver.
Please read the Parent Handbook for Student Transportation with your student. Students must follow the rules outlined in the handbook.
About Us
The Red Bluff Joint Union High School District has an enviable record of safe transportation for our bus riding students. This is due in part to the professional training school bus drivers receive to obtain their license, and the continuous training received each year to maintain their certificate. Our school bus drivers take pride in their job and work diligently to keep our students safe.
