The Transportation Department is dedicated to providing safe, cost effective transportation services for our Queen Creek families and community. Our fleet consists of 113 buses ranging from 14 passenger to 84 passenger capacity. Throughout the school year, we transport students to and from 14 district schools and six schools beyond the district boundaries. This includes mainstream, special education, Mckinney/Vento, curricular field trips, athletics, and community events.
Student safety is paramount as we strive to continuously support the educational process. Our school bus drivers are thoroughly trained and highly proficient in all vehicle components and school bus operations. Our fleet maintenance staff work diligently to care for our fleet, ensuring our buses are safe, operational, and compliant. Our office staff is focused on customer service responsiveness and proactive to our district and community needs.
