Transportation planning for 2023-24 has begun. Eagle Ridge Academy is happy to announce there will be no increase in transportation fees for the 2023-24 school year. In order to build the best routes, formally communicate the routes, receive feedback from families, and finalize the published routes, we need your timely participation.
The Academy offers a hub transportation system with centrally located stops within communities and does not guarantee a stop within walking distance of your residence. If you wish to be included in the routing for the 2023-24 school year and are not currently using Academy-provided transportation, please complete a Change in Transportation Form by April 15, 2023. We also ask that you complete the form if you wish to discontinue transportation for the 2023-24 school year. If there will be no change to your transportation, no action is required.
Transportation contracts for 2023-24 will be available on the Academy’s website on June 1, 2023. Signed transportation contracts with full payment must be submitted by July 1, 2023. Once the completed contract is signed and the full payment is received, your child will be assigned a bus route. We are unable to guarantee transportation for your child(ren) if the Transportation Contract and full payment are not received by July 1, 2023. Contracts and/or payments received after July 1 will be assessed a $50 per student late fee and students will be added to transportation as space allows.
For questions regarding transportation, please contact Karen Conner, Operations Manager, at kconner@eagleridgeacademy.org. Please see the following timeline for transportation for the 2023-24 school year.
EAGLE RIDGE ACADEMY TRANSPORTATION TIMELINE 2023-24
| MAY 15 | JUNE 1 | JULY 1 | AUGUST 1 |
| Building of initial routes. Initial routes will be built using data from students currently using Academy-provided bus service, data from Transportation Change Request Forms, and data from all new students who have requested transportation upon enrollment for the 2023-24 school year. | Initial routes will be published. Eagle Ridge Academy will host a Transportation Meeting at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 30, with school and transportation company managers to provide feedback regarding routes. | All families, new and returning, including those who used Academy-provided transportation for the 2022-23 school year must complete a 2023-24 Transportation Contract and pay in full to guarantee transportation for the first day of school.
Transportation Contracts from the 2022-23 school year will not carry over to the 2023-24 school year. Contracts and payments received after July 1, 2023, will be assessed a $50 per student late fee and transportation will not be guaranteed for the first day of school. Contracts received without payment will not confirm transportation and bus placements will not be reserved. |
Final routes will be published based on contracts received by July 1, 2023. Additional changes to routes will be made only for safety concerns, not for convenience in location. The Academy reserves the right to make changes to routes that might affect the timing or location of bus stops. |
