Transportation Communication 2022-2023
Welcome to the 2022-2023 School Year, we look forward to providing busing to those students who qualify to and from our schools daily; as well as on class trips and extra-curricular trips.
You will not receive postcards from our transportation department regarding your students’ bus assignments. Our Transportation Department now offers parent(s)/guardian(s) a way to find information about their child’s District provided transportation using the StopFinder App.
If you have not registered on the StopFinder App, please email eighan@wilsonsd.org and request a registration link for StopFinder. Once registered on StopFinder you will see all busing information for your student(s). The StopFinder App will be updated by August 18, 2022 with 2022-2023 transportation information.
Throughout the summer we have been working to ensure the best service possible for our students. One of the challenges that we have encountered is the ability to fully staff our department. This has resulted in the need to make adjustments to the pickup and drop off times of some of our daily runs. Therefore you may notice that your student(s) may be picked up earlier in the morning and possibly dropped off later in the afternoon.
If your student is currently eligible for district transportation, but you are willing to transport them to school this year, please complete this form by Wednesday, August 10, 2022. Having this information will allow us to free-up space on our buses and potentially reduce the need to double-up runs.
We will continue to actively recruit and hire additional qualified drivers to transport our students. If you or someone you know is interested in joining our team, please visit our HR website. We offer an attractive employment package and bonuses. As our team expands throughout the school year, your student(s) bus schedule may change. We will alert you to those changes as they happen. StopFinder is your best source for bus schedules as we update this system daily.
Thank you for your ongoing support of our District Transportation Department. If you have any questions, please call 610.670.0180 x1233.
Sincerely,
Randy Williams, Director of Transportation
