Transportation Notes

• Fairley Drop-Off
  • For the child's safety, it is required that all UPK through 2nd grade parents/guardians meet the bus and assist their child getting on and off the bus. Fairley Elementary students will only be dropped off when a visible adult is present at the location (home, babysitter's house, etc.). If there is no adult, the child will not be let off the bus and will be brought back to school.
• Change Requests Must be Done in Writing
  • A parent’s written request is required for any changes from one bus to another or for a change in pick-up or drop-off point. The request from the parent must be presented to the school office before ten o’clock (10 am) on the day it is to be used. On early dismissals, any requests must be presented to the school office before 9:30 am on the date it is to be used. Impromptu or any requests submitted after these times will not be honored. Transportation will not honor requests for students to be transported to a friend’s house, birthday parties, sleep overs, etc. Change requests must be used for your child’s supervision or emergency situations. Positive identification of a person calling the school cannot be made easily. The Board of Education regulations are designed to protect your child from changes in transportation that are not authorized by you. All requests for changes in transportation must be made in writing. Telephone calls or emails from parents or others requesting changes in bus transportation will not be honored. Please share this information with other family members and support our efforts to ensure the safety and well-being of your children. 
• Release and Bus Notes
  • If a student is to be released from school for a special reason or if the student is to go on a bus other than their own, a signed parent permission note must be turned in to the office by 10 a.m. Only written requests will be honored. If a student is to be picked up at the end of the day by a parent/guardian and has already boarded the bus at line up, the parent/guardian must sign the child out in that buildings’ main office before they are released from the bus.
