Hello Evergreen families,
If you completed the District 25 Fees enrollment form electing for your child to participate in bus service, the initial bus routes are now uploaded in PowerSchool. See below for steps on how to locate your child's route details.

Under General Forms, select Bus Information
Review the morning and/or afternoon stop location details
If you signed your child up for bus service and do not see anything on this screen, please email Mrs. Snyder immediately at ksnyder@benjamin25.org
If you have not yet completed the District 25 Fees enrollment form as of the August 13 deadline and are interested in signing your child up to take the bus, please complete the form immediately. At this time, there may be a delay in your child being added to the routes and bus service may not be available on the first day of school. If this is the case, you must make alternate drop-off and pick-up arrangements until the bus service begins.
We are utilizing a new bus transportation service this year. If you are unsatisfied with your stop location and would like to request a change, please reach out to Leslie Waters at the District Office. She can be reached at lwaters@benjamin25.org or (630) 876-7800. Please note that all stop location change requests are up to the discretion of the bus company.
If you did not elect to have your child signed up for bus transportation but would like to, please contact Mrs. Snyder immediately at ksnyder@benjamin25.org requesting service. At this time, there may be a delay in your child being added to the routes and bus service may not be available on the first day of school. If this is the case, you must make alternate drop-off and pick-up arrangements until the assigned bus service date begins.
If you signed your child up for bus service and live on a paid street, at least half of the transportation fee must be paid no later than the day before bus service begins (August 20), or your child will not be allowed to ride the bus until payment has been made and you will be required to make alternate drop-off and pick-up arrangements. Bus transportation fees are not eligible for any fee waivers. If you pay half of the fee now, the other half will be due January 2025. Not sure if you live on a paid street? Visit our Boundaries & Bus Info page.
IMPORTANT: Morning bus riders are expected to be at their designated stop 10 minutes before their assigned stop time to accommodate fluctuations in bus transit. Ensure your child is properly dressed for the weather. All bus riders are expected to adhere to appropriate bus behavior (staying seated, hands to themselves, no personal belongings outside of their backpacks, etc.). Behavior incidents will be reported to the school administration for review and determination of next steps. Multiple instances of inappropriate bus behavior may result in a child being removed from bus transportation service, in which case alternate drop-off and/or pick-up arrangements must be made by parents/guardians. Instructions on how to pay fees are below:
