Typically, centralized bus stops are not within walking distance of a student’s home. Families are responsible for transportation to the bus stop.
- Students attending a magnet school located in their town receive transportation through their home district. East Hartford residents receive transportation through East Hartford Public Schools for this school. Contact the district’s transportation office for more information.
- For students living outside the transportation zone, families may transport their child to an existing stop within the transportation zone or provide their own transportation. A reimbursement stipend is available for families who live outside the transportation zone and bring their child to school.
