Frequently Asked Questions and Bus Rules |
Each Bus Driver and employee of the Winnebago School District Transportation Department takes their job very seriously when transporting one of the most precious cargos of the district – your children. In order for the team of drivers to fulfill this responsibility in a safe, timely, and organized system, it is important to understand some of the process involved. The Transportation Department has developed a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document in an effort to provide answers to many of the questions parents may have about the transportation of their children. In addition, we ask that you also go over the Bus Safety Guidelines with your children as they may listen to this easier at home. |

These boundaries have been approved by the Illinois Department of Transportation and are reviewed annually. The area inside the boundary are considered hazardous. From the school to the area beyond the boundary is greater than 1.5 miles and qualifies for transportation. Please note: Maps may not be exact near borders.
