Due to the ongoing, nationwide bus driver shortage, regular education bus routes have been modified to improve service and safety for all student riders.

FINDING YOUR BUS STOP

Bus Stop & Schedule Locator

Our Student Transportation Services Branch utilizes a bus stop locator/bus schedule information system called “Infofinder i.” This website will help you to find the closest school bus stop to your home address and estimated morning pick-up and afternoon drop-off times for all school grade levels statewide.

If no bus stop locations are listed for your school, please contact your school office or email us for assistance. We highly recommend that a responsible adult be present at the bus stop in the morning and in the afternoon for children 10 and under. Bus drivers are not responsible to match each child with a specific adult at the bus stops. It is the responsibility of parents and guardians to ensure a responsible adult is at the bus stop or to make alternative arrangements for your child if they are unable to walk alone to and from the bus stop.

Steps to Finding Your Bus Stop

• Visit Infofinder i.
• Enter your street name or residential address.
• Modify your school search selection via the dropdown menu. 
• Results are displayed in a list and map form.

Note: Bus stop assignments will only populate for your child’s school if you are living in an eligible neighborhood (over one mile from school for elementary, over 1.5 miles for middle/high school students), and if there is a safe bus stop in your area.

Service Exceptions

Students who do not qualify for regular bus service may receive a “space available” exception provided there are open seats on the bus route. Parents can apply for this exception by completing the “Request to Ride the School Bus on a Space Available Basis” form (Form CS-101) along with the completed bus pass application form located in the School Bus Handbook Application Form (PDF). All forms are also located at your school’s office. Forms must be submitted, reviewed and approved by your school’s principal prior to using the bus service. The approval process may take up to four or more weeks. Students will not be permitted to ride the bus until the application is approved, so please plan accordingly. 

Service Limitations

Regular school bus service is limited to transportation to and from your child’s residential address on record and school. Department-contracted school buses do not travel on private property or on private roads. This includes, but is not limited to, private developments, apartment complexes, business parking or driveway areas.

HIDOE school bus stops and travel will be limited to paved and/or maintained public roads and public access roads. Families may need to drive their children to the nearest HIDOE bus stop if they reside on a private road or private area.
