Steps in the Pay & Ride process
- This spring, the district will be emailing K-12 Pay & Ride applications to families.
- Families complete one application per child.
- Families return applications and make payment before the first deadline, which is usually one month after applications were first distributed.
- Applications returned after the first deadline will incur a $50 late fee.
- Applications returned after the second deadline, typically mid-June, will not be processed until October. The district will notify families whether any seats have become available on a first-come, first-served basis.
