Student Transportation

Student Transportation supports schools by ensuring that all students are transported in a safe and timely manner and arrive at school ready to learn.

We provide safe, efficient and reliable services for thousands of students who use Division-arranged transportation.

While Edmonton Transit is the preferred means of transportation, yellow bus service is also provided to primary designated schools from neighbourhoods where there is no school, and to schools for students with diverse learning needs.

Yellow bus service may also be provided to Kindergarten and elementary students attending alternative programs.

Visit the Student Transportation section for more information. If you would like to apply for yellow bus service, please register here.

Calling all new bus riders!

All K–6 students taking the bus for the first time are invited to the Edmonton Expo Centre on Tuesday, August 29 for the 15th annual First Riders event. This free event is a unique hands-on opportunity for you and your child to get familiar with riding the bus before the school year begins.

Grade 7 students new to Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) and families wanting a refresher are welcome too.

Afternoon sessions run every half-hour from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Evening sessions run every half-hour from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Please register by August 25 to save your spot.
