SPECIAL BUS ASSIGNMENTS

 

LOST & FOUND

Articles of clothing left on a bus are placed in the Lost & Found bin outside the office at the bus terminal. If your child has lost or left something of value other than clothing on a bus, please contact the bus company directly at (203) 762-8600. They will ask you for the child's bus number, date lost, and a description of the article.

SPECIAL BUS ASSIGNMENTS
Special Bus Assignments are listed can be found by following this link. Locations are provided ONLY when the stop can be assigned to an existing route and seating is available. Transport will be denied for students who are not assigned to a bus if space is not available on any given day.
• Please note we cannot guarantee that arrival times will meet the needs of the students or the programs taking place at the destinations.
• For Middlebrook/Wilton High School students, please note that the buses going to the library on Godfrey Place are generally NOT able to transport students not assigned to these buses, as priority must be given to students who are going home. Please have an alternate form of transportation planned.
• Cider Mill and Miller-Driscoll parents MUST use School Dismissal Manager (SDM) for students to ride special assignment buses if their students are not assigned to them. On SDM, parents may send their students to various organizations and businesses around town that have after- school programs. However, we cannot have students use these stops if they are not registered for a program at one of the designated locations. After-school programs listed on SDM receive emailed lists each day of students scheduled to arrive at their stop. They will call the school if a name appears on the list that is not one of their students and the parents will be contacted to make alternate arrangements.

We are looking forward to a safe and efficient year ahead for all of our students riding buses.

If you have questions about your child's bus route please email transportation@wiltonps.org or call 203.762.3381 ext 8326
