Transportation

Transportation Routes and Parent Letter

Bus Routes are being reviewed and capacity requirements due to the DESE Guidance is in place.

Morning transportation, for the following communities, involves utilizing local busing to their area High Schools or Elementary School to meet Bristol Aggie’s bus.

Parents are advised that they should contact their local school districts’ transportation office to acquire stop information if their child will be taking their local transportation to these regional stops.
When students are in these central locations, our students need to wear face masks and remain socially distant so they protect that school community as well. Communities that are not providing transportation, the families are responsible to bring their child to the communities hub.

These towns/cities include:

০ Assonet ০ Dighton/Rehoboth ০ New Bedford

০ Attleboro ০ Swansea ০ Westport

০ Freetown
