Bus Routes

School bus outside of one of the GIPS Elementary schools.


Grand Island Public Schools provides limited busing throughout the district through local busing service Holiday Express.  Here you will find helpful information for navigating student transportation. Families can find detailed information on bus schedules and safety guidelines to ensure a smooth and secure commute for students.

Grand Island Public Schools authorizes the use of surveillance cameras and audio recordings in school buses to ensure the health, welfare, and safety of all students and staff. The busing service we use, Holiday Express, uses the cameras as part of their company procedures.  The use of cameras and audio recording equipment will help maintain a safe and healthy environment for our students and staff.

Transportation Expectations

Routes

GIPS will continue offering transportation support for the 2024-25 school year for the following:

  • Field Trips & Extracurricular Activities 
     
  • Transportation for students who qualify for support from Families in Transition 
     
  • Transportation for students who have transportation needs identified in their individual education plans (IEPs) and students enrolled in Skills Academy programs
     

Please Note:  Neighborhood Bus Stops will no longer run. 
 

If your student rode the bus in previous years and you do not see the route on the list above, unfortunately that means we will no longer be providing that route for the 2024-25 school year.
 

We want to make sure you are aware of this change so you may start planning routines to get your children to school safely and on time.  
 

We encourage families to work together to ride or walk together to school.  Also, please consider leaving a little earlier in the morning this year as there will be increased traffic at our schools.
