2024-25 BUS TRANSPORTATION
Please review your pass purchase options carefully.
Bus passes are non-refundable. Changes require the purchase of a replacement pass.

Bus passes will be distributed to students at the school site. Please review all FAQs, rules, and safety guidelines available on our website. Students may only board and disembark according to the bus number and stop printed on their pass. To ensure all students have the opportunity to access transportation, students may be assigned to one AM stop and one PM stop. Families with dual household custody arrangements may create a hybrid pass for two home locations by purchasing one home bus route online and then emailing transportation@lbusd.org to arrange for the addition of the second home route at no additional cost, subject to availability. Documentation may be requested as verification. All families that participate in the transportation program will receive a notification in late November if bus routes have capacity for additional riders. At that time, we will open any remaining seat availability for an additional stop assignment until routes reach full capacity.

Purchases made with more than one AM or PM stop per student will result in a voided transaction and no pass issued.

Annual pass cost is $230 each way. Current cost listed reflects a proration that occurs at the end of each school month. School months divide the school year into 10 segments and are not aligned with calendar months.
