SUBJECT:
Busing Requests for Sibling Riders
It is a pleasure for us to provide safe, reliable and efficient transportation for our students. As we embark on a succesful launch of the 2025-26 school year, we at Transportation are preparing our routes to accommodate changes throughout the district for special education transportation.
Attached is the 2025-26 Special Education Busing Request form for sibling riders, which is used for all sibling riders and must be renewed each year. We ask you to please provide assistance to parents by helping them understand that the school principal’s signature is needed prior to the form either being sent to Stephanie Erickson at stephanie.erickson@jordandistrict.org or by opting to send a hard copy to Stephanie through district mail.
Copies of the individual bus route complete with student stop locations and estimated stop times are provided to our bus drivers for each special need student attending your school. Therefore, if a sibling rider is on a bus, the driver has appropriate information either prior to the first day of school or as we receive completed and approved forms throughout the school year. A bus list is then provided to the special education teachers at your school.
As student information changes throughout the year, an updated list will also be provided to the special education teachers.
Thank you for your support. We look forward to a great school year together!
