Transportation

 
Foxborough Regional Charter School offers regional bus transportation for students. The process for the 2026–2027 school year has been updated to make things simpler and more predictable, especially for families who already ride the bus.
 
Returning Riders – Keep Your Seat
Families whose students currently ride the Regional Bus can keep their student’s current bus and stop for the 2026–2027 school year.
 
To do so, families must:
  1. Complete the Bus Seat Confirmation Form (sent by email)
  2. Pay all outstanding transportation balances in full by April 13 
  3. Pay the 2026–2027 transportation deposit by May 1 (You may use MySchoolBucks to make your deposit and payments for SY26/27)
Form Submission Deadline (Extended):
  • Bus Seat Confirmation Form due by April 22, 2026 at 11:59 PM

If all requirements are met, the student will remain on their current bus and stop.
 
If any requirement is not met:
  • The seat will be released into the open pool
  • The student must apply as a new rider
  • Seats are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis
 
Important Notes:
  • Families will receive a separate email for each student
  • A confirmation form must be completed for each student
  • Only one form should be submitted per student
  • Do not attempt to apply using the previous transportation application
 
Transportation Financial Assistance
Transportation financial assistance is available on a limited basis.
Families may indicate on the Bus Seat Confirmation Form if they would like a confidential follow-up regarding assistance.

2026-2027 Regional Bus Transportation Application for New Students
 
FRCS is now accepting Regional Bus Transportation applications for the 2026-2027 school year for new students requesting transportation.
 
This form is only for students who are new to FRCS Regional Bus transportation. Returning students who rode the Regional Bus this year should not complete this form. Returning families should follow the separate Bus Seat Confirmation process.
 
Families should complete one application per family/household and include all new students requesting transportation on the same form.
 
FRCS will assign buses and bus stops based on the address provided in the application, routing efficiency, available capacity, and operational needs. Families do not select transportation stops.
 
A transportation deposit is required to secure a seat. Deposit amounts are based on the number of students in the family:
Complete your deposit via MySchoolBucks by June 15, 2026
 
  • One student: $296 per family
  • Two students: $359 per family
  • Three or more students: $442 per family
 
Seats are limited and assigned on a first come, first served basis.
 
We encourage new families who need transportation to complete the application as soon as possible.
 
New students may complete the application here:
 
Important: Submitting a transportation application or receiving a transportation seat does not mean that a student is fully enrolled at FRCS. Students must still complete all required enrollment paperwork and requirements through the Admissions Department.

Bus Conduct and Discipline Guidelines

A school bus is an extension of school itself and the same code of conduct with appropriate consequences will apply for bus misbehavior as they do in school. School bus safety is a primary concern of F.R.C.S. and F.R.C.S. reserves the right to take whatever action is necessary to maintain a high level of safety. The right of a pupil to school bus transportation is a qualified right, dependent on appropriate behavior. In cases where a pupil seriously or continuously violates the code of conduct, parents will be notified by the School and the bus pass will be revoked if, in the opinion of the School, such action is necessary for the general safety and well-being of other students.

Return Trip Information
 
Please inform the school in writing if your child has any change in plans for dismissal. All bus students are presumed to be taking the bus each afternoon. A substantial fee will be assessed when a student is returned to the school if a parent or guardian is not on-time at the bus stop to greet their child in the afternoon. See Return Trip Info link below.
 
Students in Kindergarten, Grade 1 & 2 will NOT be left at a bus stop unattended. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to meet the bus on time to pick up your children. If you are unable to meet the bus on time to pick up your children please make the necessary arrangements to have someone pick them up in your place so they are safe and supervised at all times.

Note From Home
 
Notes should be sent in on a DAILY basis ONLY. ALL students with a change in dismissal plans must submit a note from home. Thank you.
Foxboro Residents
 
If you live in the Town of Foxboro, please notify the Town that your child will be attending FRCS and will require transportation services. The Town’s Transportation Department contact number is 508-543-1600.
