Transportation

  • The District provides safe, efficient, and timely transportation services to families weekly to ensure students are ready to learn.

    Students are offered transportation under the following guidelines:

    • Regular education students in grades K-8 who reside more than 3/4 of a mile from their neighborhood school;
    • Students in grades 9-12 are able to receive a 31-day DDOT pass each month from the office at their home school.  Students can use this DDOT pass to ride DDOT free of charge but must show their DPSCD student-issued ID to the bus operator;
    • Exceptional education students according to their IEP; and
    • Career and Technical Center Students between their high school and respective Career and Technical Center.
