Designated Bus Stops & Schedules

• Bus stops and schedules are available to parents and/or guardians in August.

IMPORTANT: Junior and Senior Kindergarten parents/guardians are to ensure that an adult is at the bus stop to meet your child. If there is no adult at the stop to meet student, the bus driver will return them to the Administration Office at 1657A Mishomis Inamo, Pikwakanagan for parent pick-up.

Cancellations

There may be times during the school year when it is necessary for the safety of our children to cancel student transportation services due to mechanical issues or bad weather (i.e. snow, freezing rain, floods, emergency road closures, etc.).

AoPFN will also provide information on bus cancellations and/or delays via the links provided below.

In a situation where school buses are cancelled schools remain open to students.

When transportation is cancelled in the morning, it is cancelled for the whole day. If you choose to bring your child to school, you are responsible for their return home after school.
