2025-2026 School Year Bus Information
ROUTES ARE PUBLISHED BELOW
Please be advised that the Transportation Department assigns ALL stops and cannot be changed. Routes for the 2025-2026 school year are finished! All new and adjusted routes are available online and posted below.  Students return August 11th, 2025.  We have added to our routes as much as possible to cover our extensive student population.  We DO NOT make house stops. Students are assigned to one stop and one bus only.  If you require multiple bus stops or prefer a different stop than the one assigned, please call 772-343-7028, ext 248, to speak with the transportation department.  When assigning stops, we consider the number of students in a given area and centralize those stops accordingly. 

If you are a  NEW STUDENT  coming to SCPA or SCA for the first time and need transportation services, please submit a transportation request form, linked below.

If you are a  RETURNING STUDENT  and are currently assigned to a bus, you do not need to submit a transportation request unless you've moved and changed your address.

If you want your child to ride an alternate bus home (e.g., to a cousin's home or a friend's house), please notify transportation by email by noon on the day your child will be riding. Failure to do so will result in the driver not allowing the child to ride.  Emails are to be sent to transportation@somersetcollegeprep.org.  When your email is received and approved, you will receive an email notification, and your child will be issued a bus pass by the transportation department for that day only.
IF YOU ARE SUBMITTING A NEW APPLICATION FOR THE 25-26 SCHOOL YEAR, YOU WILL NEED TO CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW AND SUBMIT A TRANSPORTATION REQUEST.   IF YOU ARE A CURRENT RIDER, YOU DO NOT NEED TO SUBMIT FOR TRANSPORTATION UNLESS YOU'VE MOVED AND YOUR ADDRESS HAS CHANGED.  YOUR CHILD IS AUTOMATICALLY ADDED TO NEXT YEAR'S ATTENDANCE SHEET BY DEFAULT.  IF YOU HAVE MOVED AND NEED TO UPDATE YOUR ADDRESS, PLEASE CLICK THE LINK BELOW.

2025 - 2026 BUS RULES

Please remind your student to follow the bus rules, as riding the bus is a privilege, not a right.  Please review this page and the bus rules with your child to ensure they arrive at their assigned stop at least 10 minutes before the scheduled stop time.  Once the bus has closed its doors, turned off its red student lights, and starts rolling, it is not allowed to stop to pick up late students.  Our buses operate on tight schedules, so students should stand out (weather permitting) at the designated stop and be prepared to board as soon as the bus arrives.

2025-2026 BUS ROUTES

 

Dear Somerset families- 

Your child's safety and well-being is our top priority. 

All children riding our buses are now required to wear their seatbelt when on the bus, per Florida State Staute 316.6145 (2) “Each passenger on a school bus that is equipped with safety belts or a safety restraint system shall wear a properly adjusted and fastened safety belt at all times while the bus is in operation.”

This rule applies to all Somerset buses used for school sponsored field trips, sporting events, as well as the daily routes.

Any child who chooses not to follow instructions to wear their seat belt while on the bus will have consequences, including detention, suspension from the bus, and/or possible loss of bus privileges. 

This rule applies to all students riding our buses that attend Somerset Academy Bethany, Somerset College Prep Academy, and Somerset Career Academy. 

Please speak to your students about this. Thank you for your understanding and your support in helping to keep our students safe.


Thank you
