The Midlothian Independent School District offers the privilege of bus transportation to and from school as a courtesy service for all eligible students in the district. Eligible students are defined by the state as those who reside at least two miles from the school they attend as measured by the nearest practical route.

Effective transportation service requires the cooperation among bus drivers and staff, administrators, students and parent/guardians. Every effort will be made to promote safe, comfortable and pleasant transportation service, while maintaining an appropriate level of efficiency. In order to provide safe, prompt movement of all students transported, the District has adopted guidelines and procedures for the transportation operations. Restrictive measures for violations of procedures or safety are set forth by the district and are herein outlined for your information and the guidance of your student.

The district is pleased to provide transportation and solicits your assistance in helping create a safe, orderly operation. You may do so by reading the attached material and acknowledge receipt by completing and returning the attached riders contract to the bus driver. We ask your cooperation with school personnel in developing proper behavior patterns for your students who ride buses.

Please contact the Transportation Office at 972-775-1805 if there are any questions or concerns about the MISD transportation system. Thank you for your cooperation and support regarding the care and safety of all our children.
