If Parents/Caregivers have any issues establishing or using their parent portal associated with their child’s Infinite Campus account, they should contact Caprise Waak, District Registrar, at 608.834.6571 or crwaak@sunprairieschools.org

Transportation - Eligibility We encourage Parents/Caregivers to transport their children if possible. The district will work to distance students, but is unable to guarantee distancing at bus stops and on the bus. Will my child be able to ride the bus from home to Summer School? ● YES! Children who qualify for busing may ride the bus to Summer School if their Parents/Caregivers register them for DISTRICT SPONSORED TRANSPORTATION before April 22, 2022 ● Students who qualify for busing must be registered for the full Summer School day (8:05 am-12:50 pm) to be transported to and from school. ○ Incoming Kindergarten (current 4K) students have one class option that is offered from 8:05 am - 12:50 pm. ● The district does not transport students to/from child care centers (i.e. Play Haven, Gingerbread House, etc.) Please contact your daycare director to see if they will transport. How do I know if my child qualifies for bus transportation? ● Busing services are provided to students who do not live within walking distance of their assigned summer school site. For elementary school students to receive bus services, they must live more than one (1) mile from school. ● Students who are within walking distance of their home school will walk to their home school and the district will transport them from their home school to the Summer School site that they will attend (if this site is a school other than their home school). ○ Parents/Caregivers must register their students for transportation prior to the April 22, 2022 deadline in order to ride the bus from their home school to their summer school site. ● Students that live more than one (1) mile from their home school or summer school site, and registered for transportation prior to the April 22, 2022 deadline, will be assigned a bus stop location. Students may be assigned to a corner or park stop and will need to walk to that location to meet the bus. What is a “home school” that is referenced in this information? ● A “home school” is the elementary school that your child would normally attend during the school year, based on your child’s primary home address. Summer school sites are limited to 6 of the 9 elementary schools, so if your family resides in one of the 3 attendance areas where summer school is not being held your child will attend summer school at another location. ● The summer school assignments for 2022 are: ○ ○

How is the district transportation for incoming Kindergarten students different than it was for 4K students? ● Students must live in a busing eligible area of their summer school site to qualify for district busing. ● Transportation eligibility is determined based on the student’s primary home address. ● If families need transportation to/from an alternate location (i.e. in-home child care) they will need to contact the Elementary Summer School Coordinator, Kristy Thao, kythao@sunprairieschools.org for further direction. ○ The district does not transport students to/from child care centers (i.e. Play Haven, Gingerbread House, etc.). How might the bus pick-up and drop-off locations be different during Summer School than during the regular school year? ● Generally, 4K bus stops are “door-to-door,” meaning students are picked up and dropped off at their home or child care location. ● K-5 students are assigned a bus stop at a common, more central location (i.e. corners or parks), NOT “door-to-door.” ● While many summer school bus stops are the same as K-5 regular school year bus stops, some stops are moved or eliminated to create more centrally located stops for students attending summer school. ● Parents/Caregivers should arrange for an adult or older child to remain with younger children at the bus pick up location until the bus arrives. Someone should be at the drop off site to greet your child when they return at the end of the school day. ● If a student lives within the walking area of their home school, he/she will have to walk to school and take the bus from that school to the summer school site. Parents/Caregivers must register their students for transportation prior to the April 22, 2022 deadline in order to ride the bus from their home school to their summer school site. ○ For example, if you reside in the walking area to Royal Oaks, your summer school location will be Meadow View. Your child will walk to Royal Oaks and take the bus from there to Meadow View, and vice versa after school. How will I know which bus my child will ride? ● The Sun Prairie Area School District Transportation directors will send information on the bus 1-2 weeks prior to the start of summer school to every parent/guardian of students who qualify for bus transportation AND who have registered their children for DISTRICT SPONSORED TRANSPORTATION before April 22, 2022. Where is information on traffic safety for each school? ● Traffic safety information both general and for each school is located on the District Safety & Security website. ○ District General Traffic Safety Information ● Following are the traffic safety plans for Summer School sites. ○ Creekside ○ Eastside ○ Horizon 9
●
○ Meadow View ○ Token Springs ○ Westside ○ Prairie View We will also be teaching your child more about traffic and bus safety in the K2K program.
For OUR information at each school site. ● As we get closer to the start of Summer School, we will send forms to Parents/Caregivers to let us know how your child will be coming to and departing from school. The form will ask for the following information: ○ How is your child arriving and departing Summer School (walking, private vehicle, bus) ○ Who will be delivering and picking up your child if they are being driven in private transportation. ○ Who are others, besides the primary person identified, who may drop off or pick up your child during Summer School. ○ Current BEST contact information for Parents/Caregivers, and all others who may be involved in transporting your child. ● We will also post this form on the Summer School website. Where can I learn more? ● Following is the link to the district transportation website. Please follow the directions on the page to find out if your child qualifies for district sponsored transportation (busing): https://www.sunprairieschools.org/departments/transportation ● Parents/Caregivers are encouraged to practice bus preparation procedures (walking to the bus, walking to the home school site, waiting for the bus, walking home from the bus) with their children. ○ Again, Parents/Caregivers should arrange for an adult or older child to remain with your child at the bus pick up location until the bus arrives. Someone should be at the drop off site to greet your child when they return at the end of the school day.
Registration for bus transportation closes on April 22, 2022.
