The first day of school is almost here, and now is the time to make sure your family is ready for the morning ride!
The official 2026-2027 Hillsboro R-3 school bus routes are now available. Families are encouraged to check their student’s route before school begins on Monday, August 24th.
Get Ready for the First Day
Before August 24th, families should:
Review your student’s 2026-2027 Bus Route
Download the My Ride K-12 app for estimated bus arrival times and route-specific alerts. View the My Ride K-12 User Guide
Make sure your address and contact information are current with your child’s school
Complete the Transportation Request/Update Form if your student’s transportation needs have changed
A Reminder for the First Few Weeks
Families should expect some delays during afternoon drop-off for the first couple of weeks of school as students and drivers become familiar with their new routines.
Taking a few minutes to review your transportation information now can help make the first day of school a little easier for everyone.
