Our Buses
Bussin shuttles will never transport more student passengers than our buses are equipped to seat.
Large buses can seat up to 72 students, while smaller buses can seat up to 20.
Every Bussin shuttle transporting students in grades pre-K through 12 will be equipped with safety belts in a number sufficient to allow each student who is being transported to use a separate safety belt.
All buses have working air conditioning to keep your child comfortable and safe on rides to and from school.
