If you are new to the district, here's what you need to know about school buses:

The Nashua School District provides daily transportation for elementary students who live more than one mile from school, and for junior high and high school students who live more than two miles from school. There is a fee for eligible high school students who wish to ride the bus. Exceptions to these distances are made if there are unique safety concerns in a child’s walking route.

Elementary and middle school students who are eligible for transportation will receive tickets in the mail. High school students may purchase bus tickets either through their registration process at Nashua Senior High School just prior to the opening of school, or through the Transportation Department located in the Superintendent’s Office at 141 Ledge Street during the school year.

The School District contracts for transportation services with First Student, a leading school bus transportation firm. Safety in transporting students is the first concern for both the School District and our transportation provider. Nationally, the transportation of children on school buses is one of the safest forms of transportation available.

Maintaining good student behavior on the bus is critical to ensuring the safety of all students, and bus drivers and school administrators are charged with taking appropriate disciplinary actions if students do not follow the directions of the driver. We ask parents to reinforce with their children the importance of following the rules on the bus and listening to the directions of the bus driver.

For students who live within walking distance of school, the School District has contracted with an outside transportation planning firm to identify safe walking routes to school from each street.

Further information regarding transportation can be found in the Transportation Handbook. Should you have questions or concerns regarding school transportation or safe walking routes at any time during the year, please contact your school office or the School District’s Transportation Department at (603) 594-4300, ext. 1122.
