The link for the Fall Transportation Form to fill out for the 2022/2023 School Year is now available. You can access this link here: https://forms.gle/ephtBSLjcXsRMgxe7 in your email or also find it on the Vandals App and website under 2022 VCUSD Registration Information.
Please fill out the form by July 15, 2022. We will need this form filled out completely with as
much detail as possible, in order to help us get your child set up for Transportation. Due to
drivers' shortage, we may have to rework routes. Also, due to overcrowding on late buses and
this possible staff shortage, we will need all eligible pre-k through 4th-grade students to ride the
early buses regardless of older siblings. Sorry for this inconvenience.
Please help us to start the new school year out with the least amount of confusion as possible. Just a reminder that if you live within 1.5 miles without an approved hazardous area you are not eligible for transportation.
If you have any questions, please wait until August 1, 2022, to call the transportation line at
618-283-8135. In order to give us time to work through and set up all of our district students’ transportation.
Your help is greatly appreciated!
