Transportation

RCIS school bus

RCIS transportation services have been modified this year due to COVID-19. We plan to offer our traditional services, outlined below, for the 2021-22 school year.

Customized Services, Experienced Drivers

We are committed to meeting the needs of families through doorstep or neighborhood pick up, one-way or round-trip service and specialized drop-offs at after-school locations. We accommodate riders who live in dual households, attend religious classes after school and need to be dropped off at parent’s workplace.

Our RCIS drivers are employed by the school and average 10 years of experience. Drivers enjoy getting to know each student and creating a positive experience for all riders. The entire transportation regularly trains on the latest best practices for health and safety.

Our fleet travels throughout the locality, with an average student ride time of 25 minutes

Service Options

Door-to-door is a premium service where buses navigate as close to your doorstep as possible to pick up students. This service is available round trip or on a one way-basis. Students who use door-to-door service may be picked up or dropped off at other locations at no additional charge.

Centralized service involves picking up students at centralized locations. It is designed to be a less expensive, more efficient (shorter bus ride) alternative to door-to-door service. Students may ride round trip or only purchase one-way service. Parents are responsible for transporting students to and from the pickup point.

Combination is a mix of door-to-door and centralized service.

RCIS single ride (purchased in advance) is available to all RCIS students. Up to 50 single rides per student may be purchased at any time and can be used for pick up or drop off at any of RCIS’s existing centralized or residential bus stops.
