Bus Transportation Information

BUS TRANSPORTATION FOR 2023-2024  

Longmeadow Public Schools is pleased to offer bus transportation for the 2023/2024 school year.  You must register your child for transportation annually. Students in grades K-6 who live two miles or more from their assigned school will be transported free of charge. Other students in grades K-12, who live more than 1 mile from their school will be offered paid bus transportation on a first-come first-served basis.  Capacity is limited.  The fee is $260 per child, with a family cap of $520.  This payment is required at the time of registration to be considered registered and to be added to the route list.  Our routes are designed to travel on main roads, however, occasionally buses will enter into neighborhoods if necessary.  Please note:  Blueberry Hill Elementary and Center Elementary Schools do not offer busing.

The applicable form for each student will be added to your PowerSchool Parent Portal beginning on May 24, 2023. Your registration must be completed by June 21, 2023 to be added to the route list.  We will continue to accept registrations; however, your child will be placed at a previously established bus stop if registration is received after June 21, 2023. If a bus has filled to capacity then they will be put on a wait list. 

You must log into your PowerSchool Parent Portal and click on Forms (which is located on the left side in the menu) to access the transportation registration form.  Each student needs to be registered individually for bus transportation.  Please make sure you log into your PowerSchool Parent Portal to confirm you have access to the form.  If you are having issues logging into your Parent Portal please contact the LPS help desk for assistance at helpdesk@longmeadow.k12.ma.us.

Please fill out the form even if you do not require transportation.

Please note: payment plans and subsidy applications are available through the Business Office if needed. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Caitlin McCarty at the Business Office cmccarty@longmeadow.k12.ma.us or at
