Transportation Call Center Available Monday 2018-2019

The Cabot School District is once again opening up a call center to immediately help parents with transportation questions.

The Transportation Call Center will be available on the first day of school, Monday, August 13th beginning at 3:00 p.m. and continue through at least Wednesday, August 15th. The number for parents to call is 501-743-3531. District employees will be on stand-by to help answer questions about a child's bus transportation.

The Cabot School District Transportation Department handles more than 90 school bus routes, transports close to 5,500 kids, and covers 4,800 miles every day. The call center will help alleviate the high volume of calls received each afternoon during the first few days of school.

For students who ride the bus, please be at your bus stop 10-15 minutes before your scheduled pick up time Monday. Parents, please remember due to traffic the first week of school, buses may be delayed. Afternoon buses can run 45 minutes to 1 hour late as students learn the procedures and routes. Bus routes and schedules can be found on our district website.

Also keep in mind, transportation can be confusing for students on the first day of school, especially younger children. Many parents like to drop off their child on the first day, but your child may not know how they will be getting home. Please make sure you communicate to your student and school on whether they will be a car rider or bus rider on Monday afternoon.

Thank you to all our parents and patrons for their patience and understanding as we work together to have a successful start to the school year!
