Please see the message re the First Rider program below

The First Rider Program promotes education and awareness on school bus safety for young children riding a school bus for the first time and their parents/guardians.

This year, a video-only program is being offered instead of an in-person event. Families are invited to watch the video together.

Great news! An agreement has been reached! Just a reminder for all parents that transportation WILL NOT be automatically assigned, you need to register your child on the Edulog App for transportation. Information was sent out on this by email and with report cards, but the link below to the board website has the “how to” guide if you haven’t already signed up. Please note, your child will automatically populate with the email address we have on file for you, however this can take up to 30 mins for them to appear.

Bluewater District School Board, Bruce-Grey Catholic District School Board, and Shared School Services are pleased to share that an agreement in principle has been reached with our bus operators. As such, student transportation will proceed as normal for the start of the school year in September!

✅ Important: Families must opt in for transportation for each child through the Edulog Parent Portal App. Students will not be assigned to a bus route unless this step is completed.

Thank you to our bus operators, staff, and families for your patience throughout this process. We're looking forward to a great start to the school year!

Please see the important announcement sent out today. We will keep parents updated.

Together, Bluewater District School Board, Bruce-Grey Catholic District School Board, and Shared School Services are working to ensure reliable student transportation for the beginning of the school year.

Despite our continued efforts, we have not yet reached a resolution with our bus operators. We want to be transparent with families: bus service may not be available for all students at the start of the school year in September. As a result, families should be prepared to arrange alternative transportation for their children if needed.

We recognize and understand the challenges this may present for our families and are committed to keeping families informed as this situation develops.
