Transportation
Bus Information
Bus transportation route information for students eligible to ride for free will be distributed via email prior to the start of school.
Registration
Free bus transportation is available for students (grades K-8) if they live 1.5 miles or more from school or who live in an area that is declared to be hazardous by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT).
- For new students, please contact Dru Sabres, Transportation Assistant/Business Operations Specialist, at 847-318-4325 or via email at dsabres@d64.org to determine your student's eligibility for services. Please include the student's name, school, and home address in your message.
- Returning students eligible to ride for free were asked to indicate in the annual Infosnap/PowerSchool registration in the spring whether they intended to ride the bus for the coming school year.
Paid bus service is offered for students, if space is available, for those who live between 0.5 miles - 1.5 miles away from school. Paid riders must use an existing bus stop; no new stops will be added. The cost for paid transportation is $550.00 per student for a full year.
Questions about billing? Please contact District 64 Director of Business Services Phoebe Wood at 847-318-4322 or reach her by email.
