If at any time your student will not be riding the bus as scheduled, please notify Durham School Services: 515-233-5424.
Students may only have one morning pick up location, and one afternoon drop off location. For safety reasons, we can no longer accommodate requests to be picked up/dropped off at different locations on different days. Please plan accordingly.
Students are not allowed to use bus transportation to ride to a friend’s home that is not on their assigned route.
