Transportation

 

Foxborough Regional Charter School provides fee-based regional bus transportation for eligible students throughout our service area. Transportation is based on seat availability and utilizes designated neighborhood stops serving multiple families. Payment of the transportation fee does not guarantee a bus seat, as assignments are dependent upon available capacity.

 

Regional Buses | Current Locations: Attleboro • Brockton • North Attleboro • Norwood •  Plainville • Stoughton • Taunton • West Bridgewater 

*FRCS reserves the right to change bus stops, routes, locations, and schedules as necessary.

Bus Seat Availability for 2026-2027 School Year:

❗Please Note: As of August, bus availability is limited. Please keep this in mind when planning for transportation, as many routes and bus stops are at or near capacity.

Families may be assigned to the nearest available stop with capacity if their closest stop is full. When a route reaches capacity, students have the opportunity be placed on a waiting list until a seat becomes available.

2026-2027 Regional Bus Transportation Application for Returning Students

 

Returning transportation students who met all transportation deadlines were given priority to retain their existing bus assignment for the 2026–2027 school year.

To keep a returning bus seat, families were required to:

  • Pay all outstanding transportation balances by April 13, 2026.
  • Submit the 2026–2027 transportation deposit by May 1, 2026.

Families with unpaid transportation deposits received multiple reminders throughout June, followed by an extended payment deadline of July 13. A final notification was sent on July 23. Any transportation seat that remained with an unpaid deposit were released and reassigned to students on the waiting list.

If all requirements were met:

  • The student remains on their current bus and stop.

If any requirement were not met:

  • The seat was released into the open pool.

 

Families who submit their transportation deposit after August 1 may be placed on a waiting list based on route and seat availability.

2026-2027 Regional Bus Transportation Application for New Students

 

After returning riders and eligible siblings were confirmed, available bus seats began being assigned to new transportation applicants.

Please Note: As of August, bus availability is limited. Please keep this in mind when planning for transportation, as many routes and bus stops are at or near capacity.

Most transportation assignments were completed on July 29, and remaining seats will be assigned as they become available.

  • A family is defined as students who live in the same household and use the same bus route and bus stop.

  • Transportation invoices are assigned under the name of one sibling.
  • Payments begin in July so that families can complete their fees by February. This payment schedule allows families to finish their current-year transportation fees before the next school year’s new deposit period opens in May, giving families a break between payment cycles.

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.
