Transportation Department

The Transportation Department provides solutions for Home-to-School and School-to-Home student transportation throughout the school year.

Transportation is also provided during the summer and other non-school times for field trips and other excursions by various groups and schools.

REGISTRATION INFORMATION:

Please use the Transportation Registration Form to register your student for the school bus.

BUS PASSES:

Preparations begin early in the summer for our Bus Pass and Ticket Purchase program and typically bus passes are in the hands of students by the fourth week of school.

To purchase bus passes or tickets with credit card, please use LINQ Connect. Once you have registered and logged in, go the the upper left corner (click on the three lines) then go to "STORE" and click on San Lorenzo Valley USD to purchase tickets.

For cash or check payments, please contact the Transportation Department at 336-2223 or you can fill out the form located on the Bus Information Page.

Review the Bus Information Page for existing bus routes.

IMPORTANT TRANSPORTATION UPDATES:
The SLVUSD Transportation Department Team has worked tirelessly to ensure all of our bus routes can remain open with limited staff. However, we were notified yesterday by Michael's Transportation who supports us in covering our routes that the assigned bus driver for SLVUSD is not available. As a result of the loss of a bus driver, we are unable to cover all routes. Due to the lack of drivers, we unfortunately will need to temporarily close the “SWAN” Bus Route, which services Ben Lomond. Once we are able to secure a bus driver, or an outside organization is able to provide us with a driver, the SWAN bus route will be reinstated. We understand that this is a hardship for those families that depend on bus transportation in the Ben Lomond area and we want you to know that the District is doing all that we can to be able to reinstate the SWAN bus route. For information about bus routes, purchasing bus passes, and general transportation information, please contact the Transportation Department at (831) 336-2223 or visit the TRANSPORTATION website. To register your student, there are two options: 1) Through the clickable link on this page under Registration Information. 2) At the Transportation Office in the school bus yard located at 315 Marion Ave, Ben Lomond. For the safety of our mechanics and drivers, we ask that you park at the District Office and walk up the driveway to our office. Text Messages ~ The Transportation Department has the ability to communicate changes to bus routes via text message. In order to receive text messages from SLV Transportation, cell phone numbers must be in PowerSchool. Over the upcoming weeks, we will be encouraging families to confirm that we have accurate phone numbers and encourage them to participate. Recipients may "Opt-In" to receive text messages by texting "Y" to 67587 from each wireless device they wish to receive texts on. SLVUSD does not charge recipients for text messages, however certain wireless providers may charge for individual text messages, depending on the plan associated with the wireless device. Recipients may "Opt-out" by not replying to the text or by texting "STOP" to 67587.
