Latest News & Announcements

School District No. 59 (PRS) provides transportation service for rural students following the guidelines established in Policy 6070.  Registration for bus service is mandatory. If you would like to register for bus service or have general questions regarding transportation services please contact the Transportation Department at 250-782-2106.

It is also important to notify the Transportation Department if you already have bus service and will be moving so the department can adjust school bus route and attendance information. 

The Transportation Department is migrating to new routing and planning software. The new software (Traversa) automates many previous manual processes including tracking and managing fleet operations, dispatching and assignment of tasks to drivers, real-time notice of interruption of routes, and attendance tracking.

In September 2025, students will be issued an RFID card which will be swiped by the student when loading and unloading. This will improve service, safety, communication and efficiency for students, drivers and Transportation Department administration.

A presentation on the implementation of this project is available at Traversa Implementation Project-Presentation-Apr2025. Individuals may also view the public presentation that was presented in the April Board Meeting.

Please contact the Transportation Department at 250-782-2106 if you have any questions or inquiries about the system.
