New WCPSS Transportation Process for Next Year, Started May 30
The WCPSS Transportation Department will put new practices into place for the 2014-15 school year with the goal of improving bus service for families.

These changes will mainly affect new families moving into Wake County OR families going to a new school INCLUDING RISING 6th GRADERS and KINDERGARTENERS
  • New families may complete a request for service when they enroll for school. 
  • New families must sign up approximately one month prior to the start of the school year to receive first day service.
If your child is currently not riding the bus, is eligible for transportation and wants to ride the bus next year, you may request transportation for them online starting May 30 at www.wcpss.net. 

A recent article was published in the News and Observer related to the new procedures. It can be found here: Transportation Changes.
