Bus Stop Information & Reminders

 Bus information will be available in your Infinite Campus Parent Portal as listed below:   
  • 6th graders will have bus information available Aug. 18th. This is to accommodate the WEB program on Aug. 25th in which we bus the students to their afternoon bus stop.
  • Bus information for all other grade levels will be available Aug. 23rd.
*** Please be sure to look at this information again right before school starts as times can change due to routing and/or stop adjustments. ***

All in-district students are automatically assigned a bus to and from school.
If you have an alternate bus stop location, the forms are due now. These forms must be completed each year. Please complete a form for any of the following reasons:
  • Daycare pick-up and drop-off location
  • Open Enrolled student
  • Dual household/2 stops for students grades 6-12
To access the Alternate Bus Stop Request Forms, click here. Completed forms should be sent to Jody Swedberg at jswedberg@priorlake-savage.k12.mn.us, or faxed to 952-226-0049. You may also drop the form off at the District Services Center, 4540 Tower Street SE, Prior Lake.
Bus reminders:
  • Please be at your stop 5 minutes prior to the time listed.
  • Remember that we do not allow students to ride on another bus with their friends. They must stay on their assigned bus except in the case of an emergency. In that case, please contact the transportation office to make arrangements.
  • Large band instruments are not allowed on the bus.
  • Students residing on dead-end streets/cul-de-sacs are expected to walk to the nearest intersection to access a bus stop.
  • Safety and efficiency are primary considerations in establishing stops.
  • Bus stops may not be visible from the students home.
  • Bus stop change requests will not be considered until the third week of the new school year.
Please visit our  transportation page  for any questions you may have about busing.
