We are down to 4 bus routes to start the year, which means pick up and drop off times may vary from the previous year. It also may not be possible for us to have different pickup and drop off points.
We are doing everything we can to transport your children to and from school. Any families that are able to transport your children to and from school that do not need a bus, please consider doing so.
Please be patient with us as we work this out. We appreciate your understanding!
If interested in becoming a bus driver, please contact the office!

Bluford-Farrington JH Baseball fans, when you're baseball player brings home his schedule this year you will note our home game start time is a little different than what you are used to in the past. This was due to a late necessity. Some games will start at 5, others 5:30 according to what the opponent could allow for. Away games had to remain at the original starting time due to our joint transportation. 2 JH SB start times were also affected so check your softballers schedule. Enjoy a great Junior Trojan and Junior Lady trojan season.
