General Information 

Bus assignments were created with the current information in our student information database.  If you had a change of address during the summer and did not alert the schools to this change, please contact the Family Resource Center to make arrangements as soon as possible so we can properly assign your student to a bus.

• To find your child's bus route and bus stop, find the intersection of streets (or the address) closest to your home location.  This is where your child will be picked up or dropped off.  Bus stops and bus numbers are typically the same for the morning and afternoon.

• Children should not board just any bus in the area. Children should only board their assigned bus.

• Bus numbers, stops, and routes might change from year to year, so please check the routes.  Don’t assume your child’s bus number and stop are the same from last year.  

• Bus assignments are subject to change based on enrollment.  You will be notified in advance if a change is needed during the year.

• Students must board and get off at the same location and can not have multiple stops.

• If your child has a change in arrival, dismissal, or travel plans, please make sure each school office knows.  This applies for a daily change or a permanent change.  Anything different from the normal, expected plan should be reported to your child’s school.

• Information on personal transportation plans from year to year or school to school do not "carry over."  For example, if you opt to drive your child to/from school instead of taking a bus, please alert the school to this plan.

• If you have a question, please ask staff at your child’s school during Open House on Thursday, or call the school's Main Office.  Please visit our website for school contact information.

• The times listed for bus pick up and drop off are approximate, and based on estimates at the beginning of the year.  Please allow for 10-15 minutes of grace time, especially at the beginning of the year.  After school is in session for a few days, routines will be established so you'll have a better sense of the pick up and drop off times.

• Please be aware that ongoing construction on the Central Street Bridge in Milford is causing significant traffic delays. As a result, school buses traveling near this route may experience delays during morning pick-up and afternoon drop-off times.  Until the construction project is complete, please plan for the possibility that buses may arrive later than scheduled. 

• Specialized van or bus transportation is designated by a child’s IEP only.

• Students living closer than the designated Walk Zones are not eligible for bus transportation.  Walk Zones are as follows:

  • MHS (2 miles)

  • Stacy Middle School (1.5 miles)

  • Woodland (1 mile)

  • Brookside (1 mile)

  • Memorial (1 mile)

  • Kindergarten (All students bussed)

The district provides transportation to students in grades K-12 as detailed in the Milford School Committee Policy File EEAA:  Walkers and Riders

Effective transportation service requires cooperation among bus drivers & staff, school administrators, students and parents/guardians.  Transportation rules and procedures are provided so you can be familiar with our expectations and the transportation procedures.  

The Transportation Office is located in the Milford High School. Please contact the Director of Transportation with any questions or concerns.
