Transportation & Arrival Information

If available, families will receive a bus assignment sheet during the Crossroads onboarding process. This sheet will include your student's assigned hub bus stop and scheduled pick-up time for the first day of school.

Please note that bus routes are often adjusted during the first few weeks of school. Because pick-up times may change, students should:

  • Arrive at their bus stop at least 10 minutes before the scheduled pick-up time.
  • Remain at the bus stop at least 10 minutes after the scheduled pick-up time.
  • During the first few weeks of school, families may want to allow additional wait time until routes become consistent.

Student Drop-Off

Families who choose to drive their student to school should use the designated drop-off area along the sidewalk near the driveway entrances. Students should then use the sidewalks to walk safely to the front entrance.

School Arrival Times

  • School arrival: 6:45–6:55 a.m.
  • First period begins: 7:00 a.m.
  • All students should be in their classrooms and ready to learn by 7:00 a.m.

If you have questions or concerns regarding your student's bus stop, pick-up time, or other transportation matters, please contact the BCPS Department of Transportation.
