Whitley County Consolidated Schools (WCCS) families have to opt in for transportation from WCCS for the 2023-2024 school year.
During registration, which opens today, parents/guardians will elect for students to ride the bus.
In the past, WCCS Transportation Department routed every student as a bus rider. WCCS knows 100 percent of students do not ride the bus for various reasons. For more accurate routes and clearer communication between guardians and bus drivers.
Guardians will opt in through Skyward during the registration process. As in the past, the guardian will select morning, afternoon or both transportation needs and indicate where the student is picked up and/or dropped off, which must be on a WCCS route.
Registration is open from April 10 to May 31, 2023. Contact the WCCS Central office with any questions at 260.244.5771.
