How to Get Involved


Each participating school has a parent liaison who helps to coordinate the school bus program.  Parent liaisons provide communication between staff and the school sites, distribute materials to the schools, and provide input on the development of routes and schedules.  Parent liaisons are required to attend monthly board meetings.  The board normally meets on the first or second Monday of the month. Please call the office at (925) 299-3216 to inquire about meeting dates.
