School Bus Orientation
The Calgary Board of Education, Calgary Catholic School District, First Student Canada, Southland Transportation Ltd., 4 Seasons and Dreams offer a school bus orientation program for first-time riders and their parents, called My 1st Ride. We offer this free of charge each spring.
Attendants must register in advance. Spots are limited and are on a first-come, first-served basis.
The program consists of a 20-minute presentation followed by a short ride on a school bus. After the bus ride, students are invited back to the school gym to visit the service provider's booths. Each new rider will also be given a certificate of completion.
Staff from both School Boards, as well as Southland Transportation, First Student, 4 Seasons and Dreams bus companies are available for information and/or questions.
The sessions run every half hour between 9am and 3pm. Each session will take approximately 30 minutes.
