Welcome to our transportation Web page!
The
Guilderland Central School District runs an average of 90 buses each day—traveling more than 1.4 million miles a year (that’s to California and
back every school day) to 65 different schools!
Approximately 5,300 public school students, 400 private and parochial
students and 120 special needs students ride Guilderland buses daily.
School closings,
delays and early dismissals
School closings, delayed openings and early dismissals
resulting from weather conditions or other situations will be posted on the
homepage of the Guilderland Central School District Web site.
Additionally,
individuals may access school closing information
via School News Notifier and various media outlets. Please do not call the
bus garage for information about school closings, since this ties up phone
lines and can prevent receipt of important calls.

To find your child's bus route, peruse the list
below to find the stop closest to your house. The time noted under "first
pickup" is when the bus will stop at the first location. It will then
proceed to each street in the order listed.
Please write down your child’s bus route number (the
number displayed in the window, not the number painted on the side of the
bus itself) for easy access in case you need to communicate with the
Transportation Department. Parents are also encouraged to find out the name
of their child’s bus driver and write it down, since this too can facilitate
clear communication.
