Transportation & Bus Pass
Miller Creek District Transportation Department is a team of highly trained professionals dedicated to providing the safest and highest quality transportation possible to our students. Our drivers not only meet the strictest California requirements but also meet our own high standards in driver competence and courtesy.
Dear Parent or Guardian:
It's time again to order your bus pass if you wish your child to ride on a Miller Creek District School Bus for the 2022/23 school year. School bus transportation offers families a safe, convenient and environmentally friendly way to get kids to school. This year in order to offset the increase in fuel costs, bus pass prices have been increased by $25 and we offer the following options:
• Annual Round Trip Pass
• Semester Round Trip Pass
• One-way Annual Pass (for those who want to ride either mornings only or afternoons only)
• On-line registration and payment option through SchoolPay
• Payment Plan Option (in person at the District Office only)
We accept credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover and debit cards), checks or cash for payment. Credit Card transactions will be accepted when registering and purchasing online and at the District Office between the hours of 9AM and 4:30PM.
Please refer to the District’s website for transportation information and procedures. To process your request, download and submit your application with payment and the rules for bus rider’s signature sheet. For those unable to download or view the information on our website you may come by the District Office to pick up a packet or call 415-492-3711 to request a packet be mailed.
To ensure your child's bus pass arrives prior to the first day of school (Thursday 8/18/2022), we ask that you complete the application either online or mail the paper form as soon as possible. Due to limited sitting, only bus passes will be sold, bus tickets will not be available for purchase. Bus seats will be reserved on a first come first served basis.
Again, this year we will have a bus at each elementary site on Wednesday 8/17/22 – Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten Orientation Day. Your child will have the opportunity to board the bus, sit in seats and get familiar with the bus, so when they start riding they will feel a bit more comfortable. Transportation for transitional kindergarten and kindergarten students is available the first day of school.
If there are any specific health and safety protocols for transporting students implemented in the fall you will be notified of the guidelines.
The bus pass will be mailed to your home. Please be aware that bus routes have not changed from last year but are subject to future changes if needed.
If you have any questions, please call me at 415-492-3777 or send an email to mnugent@millercreeksd.org
Sincerely,
Molly Nugent
Transportation Supervisor
