As the sun rises on Monday, Aug. 21 — the first day of school for the 2023-2024 school year — Canyons District neighborhoods will be dotted with scores of students walking with friends, riding bikes or scooters — or waiting with their new backpacks at the school-bus stop.
Nearly one-third of Canyon students rely on CSD buses to get to school, so transportation issues are an important part of the back-to-school preparations. To avoid confusion, frustration, and maybe even some tears for your family on the first day, Canyons District urges parents to check their bus eligibility and find out whether bus stops have changed from the previous year.
The information is easy to find on the CSD website. Simply click here to use Canyons’ “Bus Eligibility and School Locator” online tool.
为符合条件的学生提供交通服务。 Canyons District 接受为就读幼儿园至六年级且居住在距离学校至少 1.5 英里的学生和七年级至十二年级且居住在距离学校至少 2 英里的学生提供公共汽车的资金。
这意味着，一些去年获得公车资格的中学生今年可能不再符合资格，因为他们已经升到七年级，必须住在离学校2英里以上的地方才能接受服务。
但是，Canyons 创建了一个“可用空间”许可计划，以帮助许多不再符合公交服务资格的学生。不符合条件的学生可以提交交通服务请求，以便他们可以与符合条件的兄弟姐妹或邻居一起乘坐——如果校车上有空位的话。
Canyons District will start accepting space-available bus permit requests at 8 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 7.
Families without computer or Internet access at home may use the computers placed in lobbies of schools for Back-to-School Online Registration, which also begins Aug. 7.
Please submit the requests only if your child is not on the list of students who qualify under state guidelines for transportation to and from school on a CSD bus.
During the first few weeks of the school year, bus services will not be provided to non-qualifying students, even if they have submitted a space-available permit request. This time is needed to verify the number of students who, according to state law, are guaranteed a spot on the bus.
Families will be notified about whether they have received a space-available bus permit after Labor Day. The permits are granted on a first-come, first-served basis.
在地理边界分配给他们的学校以外的学校上学的学生没有资格考虑获得可用空间许可证。
