Battle River School Division announced that bus registration for the 2024-25 school year is now open until 4 p.m. on June 27.

The shift to this earlier registration window will allow for more timely notification of student bus assignments. This change also allows for better communication between families, schools, bus drivers and transportation department staff. Parents with bus students from the City of Camrose and the Town of Tofield must register annually. For all other locations, parents with bus students need to register only if this is the first time that their child(ren) will be riding a BRSD school bus, such as new students beginning kindergarten.

Additionally, parents with students that have had changes to their contact information, such as physical address or school of attendance, are required to register. If there are no changes to student contact information, rural students will automatically be included in the route plans for the upcoming school year, with no need to register.

Applications for school of choice/cross boundary transportation will be available at 9 a.m. on May 1.
