GENERAL INFORMATION:

Boarding of School Bus
Parents are restricted from boarding any Stone Ridge bus; this includes any bus contracted to provide services to Stone Ridge. Only students enrolled in the Stone Ridge Student Transportation Program are allowed on the bus. Bus drivers have been instructed to enforce this regulation.

Daily Bus Manifest
Daily, a manifest will be created for each bus run to account for the students who board and ride the bus to and from Stone Ridge. It will be the responsibility of each student to clearly state her/his name to the bus driver upon boarding.

Prompt Pick-Up & Drop-Off
Parents are expected to promptly pick-up and drop-off their child(ren) at each bus stop. As our bus runs have multiple stops, it is imperative that the bus remains on schedule. The bus will only remain at any stop for 5 minutes past scheduled pick-up time, subject to traffic conditions. Due to the unpredictable traffic in our area, the bus may arrive early or be a few minutes late.

Emergency Closure of School
Unless otherwise informed, Stone Ridge will follow Montgomery County Public Schools for all emergency closures of Stone Ridge. Parents shall be responsible for monitoring Montgomery County Emergency Information sources, and buses shall operate during inclement weather conditions unless school is canceled.

  • If school is delayed, Stone Ridge may open two hours late and bus transportation shall be delayed by two hours from the regularly scheduled pick-up time(s).
  • If school closes early, Stone Ridge may close 2.5 hours early and bus transportation shall be moved up by 2.5 hours from the regularly scheduled drop-off time(s).

Extended Day and Supervised Study
Students in Grades K-8 remaining on campus after the 3:30 p.m. departure must attend Extended Day or Supervised Study (if they are not participating in another after school activity). Normal Extended Day or Supervised Study charges will apply. Learn more about our After School Programs.
