Family Update - August 13, 2026

Before school starts on August 31st, will you please take a few minutes to double-check which school your child will attend? You can do this by clicking the map to the left (or going to d93.org/boundarymap) or the buttons below for our school bus route lookup tool. Please don’t assume your child’s school assignment is the same as last year. Additional information about registration, transportation, back-to-school events, and the first day of school will follow.

Thank you to our families and community for the patience, support, and thoughtful feedback you shared during last year’s budget reductions and boundary changes. We are so grateful for our local community support to continue to fund PE and music in elementary schools, our GATE program, all-day kindergarten and many other opportunities for our students. We know those decisions weren’t easy, and we’re grateful for your continued commitment to our students and schools.

We are excited about the new school year and the positve changes ahead for our kids. We appreciate the trust you place in us to educate and care for your children. We are excited to welcome them back, but in the meantime, please enjoy the last few weeks of summer as a family. It goes too fast.

As we shared in July, we are implementing a new transportation routing system that will provide more accurate route information, improved communication, and real-time GPS tracking for families.

Our transportation team will present bus routes to the School Board on Wednesday, including bus stops, and estimated pick-up and drop-off times. Families do not need to register separately for bus service, but they should use the School Bus Lookup Tool before school starts to confirm their child’s route and stop information.

We appreciate your patience as we complete this transition. Bus information will be available before the first day of school.

Beginning August 10th, school secretaries will be back and ready to assist families.

With the opening of a new school and updated boundaries, the district has worked carefully to design a schedule that supports safe, efficient transportation and consistent school routines for students and families.

The updated schedule streamlines elementary start times into three groups, replacing a wider range of start times currently in place. This adjustment allows for improved bus routing and provides drivers with additional time between routes, helping ensure students arrive safely and on time despite increased traffic and growing enrollment.

Under the new schedule:

These changes were developed through collaboration with school leaders and transportation staff, with careful consideration given to instructional time requirements, traffic patterns, and the complexity of running multiple bus routes each day.

While adjustments like these can take time for families to adapt to, the goal remains clear: providing a safe, reliable, and efficient schedule that supports student learning across D93.

The full district schedule is included below for your reference.
