    2024-2025 Alternate Address Request New Process

     

     

    С³óߣthe Alternate Address Request

     

    Transportation will use the primary address in Focus to assign a bus stop. To update that address, contact your student’s school of enrollment prior to submitting an Alternate Address Request.

     

    Submit an Alternate Address request, if you require a different stop/bus for your student, other than the one assigned based on the primary address listed in Focus. Alternate Address requests are considered based on Transportation Policy, as referenced below.

    Submitting an Alternate Address Request

     

    1. While logged into your Parent Focus account, register your student for bus transportation by selecting “yes” on the Transportation Registration Form.
    1. The criteria listed below will be used to determine whether the request can be honored:
      1. The Primary Address listed in Focus meets the transportation policy.
      2. The Alternate Address provided meets the transportation policy.
        1. If either a. or b. is “no” the student is not eligible, and transportation is the responsibility of the parent/guardian.
    2. If your student is eligible based on the criteria above, call the Transportation Department at 904-858-6200, option 1, to submit your request.

     

    Once submitted, the request will be reviewed by the Transportation Department. If approved, the student will be assigned to a bus and the route information will be shared with the parent/guardian. Approved requests submitted by Friday, August 2, 2024, will start on Monday, August 12, 2024.

     

    Parents/Guardians should only submit one request per student.
