Can my child take the school bus?
Students in Kindergarten to Grade 6, who attend their catchment-area school and live over 1.6 km away, are eligible for WSD transportation. Nursery students who attend a French Milieu school, Niji Mahkwa, and Isaac Brock (for Indigenous language program only), and live over 1.6 km away, are eligible for WSD transportation. Requests for transportation must be made at the school the child is registered at. Students must be registered first prior to requesting transportation. Transportation is not provided for students in Grade 7 or higher.
