District 202 makes every effort to provide safe transportation for students. If road conditions prohibit our school bus drivers from safely navigating their routes, school will be cancelled.

If District 202 determines that it is unsafe to transport District 202 students to school because of bad weather, we will also not transport students who attend school outside of District 202, even if those outside placement schools are open.

At times, our buses will be able to operate safely but our drivers will need to adjust their schedules due to the changing road conditions. When schools are open during adverse weather conditions, parents are asked to personally supervise the safe loading of children.

In some cases, bus departure from school may begin earlier than usual so that the last riders can return home as close to the normal time as possible.

Individuals with questions are encouraged to call their school principal or the District 202 Transportation Office (815-436-7800).
