快速县公交通行证计划

The Hawaii State Department of Education (Department) continues to partner with the four counties in a collaborative effort to provide transportation options for HIDOE students. 

The EXPRESS program–which stands for 扩大乘客量以教育学校学生—was piloted in the 2022–23 school year to help mitigate the impacts of the ongoing national school bus driver shortage. Extending to school year 2026-2027, EXPRESS will continue availability to students attending middle and/or intermediate and high schools statewide.

The Department has extended this transportation option as a courtesy to support families; however, it is not a mandated service.  

资格

免费县通行证申请人资格的重要更新:

  • Be a Hawaiʻi public school student attending middle and/or intermediate or high school with an active HIDOE ID number; and
  • Attend their home school (no Geographical Exemptions); and
  • Reside 1.5 miles or more from their home school in their public school attendance area.  Walkzone is calculated from the recorded home address in Infinite Campus to the nearest public access for the school campus (not from the main office).

The application period will open on July 13, 2026, and close on April 30, 2027. 

If your child has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or Modified Plan (MP) that includes transportation as a related service, please contact your district educational specialist (DES) for more information.

For students eligible under the McKinney-Vento Act (MVA), do not apply for an EXPRESS pass.  All bus pass requests must be submitted using the School Bus Application form (ST-70), along with a completed, approved MV-1 form. For assistance with this process, please contact your complex area MVA liaison.  See complex area directory here.

For students attending a Kaiapuni program, please email [email protected] with the following information:  

  • Student Name; 
  • DOE Student ID number (10-digits); and
  • School.

These requests must be reviewed on a manual basis due to distance from attending school.

申请流程

Your student may only use one transportation option at a time. 

If your student has an existing regular school bus pass, they will have to discontinue this service if they choose to apply for an EXPRESS pass. EXPRESS applications will be approved on an annual basis. Please choose the right option for your student as they cannot change their pass type for the remainder of the year. 

For families that do not meet the transportation eligibility criteria, please see your county’s bus agencies for more information on purchasing a youth pass.

申请步骤

  1. 请查看相应岛屿交通办公室网站以获取路线信息，并与您的孩子一起确定公交路线、时间和地点。
  2. Check your student’s transportation eligibility:
    • Check the distance from your student’s listed home address (as recorded in Infinite Campus) to home school.  
    • If the distance is 1.5 miles or more and your student is not attending school on a GE, then your student qualifies for a free EXPRESS pass.
  3. 填写在线申请表 这里 (Applications will be available until April 30, 2027). Transportation eligibility will be determined by the home and school location in Infinite Campus. You will be notified during this process if your student is approved for an EXPRESS pass.
  4. Upon application submission, passes will be available for pick up at your school office within 15 to 25 business days. 
    • Due to high volume requests, delays may occur due to printing errors and delivery time. Please plan accordingly.
  5. 确定并练习往返于家和学校公交车站的安全步行路线。
