We understand that your student may not ride the bus, whether due to a school absence or a school activity. Or, you may need to remove your student from their bus route altogether.

Learn more about these procedures below.

One-day absence

If your student will not ride the bus for one day—due to illness, for example—call the transportation department directly at 319-558-2318. You may also text the transportation department through your StopFinder app.

Extended absence

If your student will not ride the bus for more than one day—due to participation in a sport, for example—call the transportation department directly at 319-558-2318. To resume transportation for your student, you must notify the transportation department.

Voluntary bus route removal

If you would like to remove your student from their bus route, please contact your student’s school directly.

Involuntary bus route removal

If your student does not ride their bus route for 10 consecutive school days or more, they may be removed from their route. Contact your school to re-request a bus route.
