As we plan for the 2025-26 school year, we are excited to continue to partner with Marschall Lines to provide the most comprehensive transportation options to our south metro families. Transportation options are provided below to help families plan for the upcoming school year. Please note that the transportation outline below may change based on actual enrollment as we continue to try and accommodate as many families as possible. To understand what is offered, you need to know the school district that your residence is located in.
