Daily Transportation Changes

Bus changes:

All bus changes must be directed to the Transportation Department by phone at 281-592-0377, or by email at transportation@tarkingtonisd.net by 2:30 p.m. They will be able to verify if students are registered to ride the bus. Once their information is verified, they will send out a notice to the campus and bus driver. Additionally, please review the Transportation Procedures below.

  • The State of Texas has determined a child will have only one permanent address for pick-up/drop-off and the same pick-up/drop-off location every day of the week. This can be found in our Student Handbook on page 120. Students must be registered with the Transportation Department prior to riding the bus via their Google Form that can be found on the Tarkington ISD website under the Transportation Department.
  • Students are not allowed to ride home with other students.
  • Students are not allowed to get off at any stop other than their designated stop.
  • Students are not allowed to ride more than one bus unless we have court documents on file showing shared custody.

 

Car Rider Changes:

  • Car rider changes must be made before 2:30 pm by calling the front office.
  • All students leaving early must be picked up by 3:00 p.m.
