REQUEST FOR BUST TRANSPORTATION The parent or guardian of each Saint Jerome School student will be asked annually (toward the end of the school year) to sign a Transportation Request Form which should be completed and returned to school by the requested deadline; it is then forwarded onto the student's respective school district. The school district will send notification directly to the parent or guardian toward the end of the summer, as to how transportation will be handled for the following school year. Please contact the bus company directly for all transportation inquiries.

Bicycle Safety - Helmets Must Be Worn
Students may only ride bicycles to school if a written note signed by the parents is on file in the school office. However, the school will not accept responsibility for the safety of the students or their bicycles. Locks are recommended. No one is permitted to ride on another's bicycle nor on the handle bars. Students should dismount their bicycles and walk them on to the school grounds when arriving at school and walk them off the school grounds before mounting. Motorized bicycles and skateboards are not permitted. Bicycle riders will be dismissed last.
