Late Bus Program 2011-12

To support the transportation needs of students participating in the after school Academic  Enrichment programs the Late Bus program will be offered this year beginning Monday, October 24th - Thursday, May 31st.  The Late Bus routes are posted below.  Although we would like to be able to offer seats to all students  seats will be reserved for students participating in academic activities or be actively involved in a competitive sports team in order to be eligible for late bus services.  Due to the limited number of seats that are available the Late Bus services will not be available to students participating in the Extended Day program.

How does my student access Late Bus services?

  • Please know that seats on the Late Buses are limited, they are First Come, First Serve.
  • A Late Bus Pass is required to access services, Late Bus passes will be handed out by AE staff Monday thru Thursday afternoons at 3:30PM when the student signs in to the AE program.
  • To obtain a Late Bus pass student(s) must be registered and participating in the Academic Enrichment program as well as registered for Regional Transportation services.
  • Student(s) that attempt to ride the Late Bus without a Late Bus Pass will NOT be able to board the bus.
  • Proper bus behavior is essential to a positive transportation experience, riding the bus is a privilege and infractions will result in the loss of those privileges.
  • Student’s may not leave school property and then access a Late Bus ride.
  • Students serving detention are not eligible for a Late Bus ride.

Attention New FRCS Families

Transportation registration is accepted via an online application on the school’s website, once your child has been accepted and has completed the admissions process. An offer of enrollment for our academic program does not include a guarantee for our transportation program. Unfortunately, seats are limited by capacity laws and at this time many routes are full.  If seats are not available at the time that you have completed your registration packet, your child will be placed on a waitlist. Positions that come available throughout the year will be offered on a first come, first served basis.

Please do not attempt to access transportation unless you have received written confirmation of a bus route/stop assignment communication AND your student(s) have received their Bus Passes.

How do I register for the FRCS Regional Transportation Program?

  1. Complete the online registration application please email Transportation@foxboroughrcs.org to request the application.
  2. Print out the receipt and follow the detailed instructions to complete the application process.
  3. You may request a Transportation Registration Packet be mailed to you, please contact the Transportation Department by phone at (508) 543-2508 ext. 256 or you may request a packet via email please send your request to Transportation@foxboroughrcs.org.

Upon completion of a transportation registration application and submission of all accompanying documents and fees, eligible students will be notified of their seat assignment and issued a Bus Pass either at our Annual Open House or in their Homeroom on the first day of  school.

Once registered and assigned a seat on one of the regional buses, please note:

  1. Students must show their bus pass to the driver each day upon entering the bus. The pass entitles students a school bus ride to and from school.
  2. Students are to ride only the bus to which they are assigned.
