Transportation Service
The bus service is contracted out to the company Transportation Service, intended for оur students' transportation.
The bus service runs Monday through Friday, following the regular school schedule, with various pickups at different locations in the morning and then an afternoon pick-up in front of the school. Students signed up for the bus service but attending an after-school activity will have to be collected by their parents.
Children are picked up and dropped off at designated safe points, as close as possible to their homes. The bus routes are finalized and communicated to parents during the first week of school, with service commencing during the second week.
