Dear Parents:

The Ross Local School District relies heavily on school buses to provide a safe means of getting students to and from our schools. In fact, we are responsible for the safe transportation of over 2,000 students each and every school day. The district realizes that child care needs may require students be picked up and/or delivered at a location different from their home addresses. This is considered “special transportation” and should be communicated to the transportation department as early as possible so appropriate bus routes can be established.

If your child requires special transportation needs for next school year, forms are available at Elda Elementary, Morgan Elementary, and Ross Middle School. Forms can also be requested from our transportation department at 738-2900 or submitted at www.rossrams.com.
All special transportation forms are due by July 1st, 2011 in order to be placed on a route for the first day of school.

After school starts, any non-emergency special transportation requests will require two working days to arrange and confirm. We will still accommodate emergency situations that require special transportation on any given day.
If high school transportation is needed for next year, your request needs to be submitted before July 1st, 2011.

Thank you for your cooperation and help in making Ross Schools’ bus transportation as safe and efficient as possible.

Ron Mandery
Director of Transportation
