Transportation FAQs and Ridership Guidelines

Walk to Stop Confirmation

How do I know if my child is eligible to ride the bus?

The CISD Board-approved guideline states that students who live more than one mile from school or students who live near identified hazardous roads, such as a highway, are eligible for transportation.

  • When you register your child for transportation, the system will automatically assign a bus stop unless your physical home address is within one mile of your child's school.
  • If you do not need bus service, visit www.conroeisd.net/transportation/, select "Register for Transportation", and click "No".

    • How is the one-mile distance measured?

    The one-mile measurement is made from the point at which the driveway of the residence meets the public/community road to the nearest point where any campus driveway meets the public road where any pedestrian walkway or greenbelt provides access to school property (through a gate or driveway). Distances are measured using CISD's school bus routing software and/or Montgomery County Appraisal District (MCAD) maps.

    The Board of Trustees established student walk-to-stop distances for students who are eligible for transportation.

    The distances listed here are the maximum walk-to-stop distances for each grade group. Distances are measured along public roads. Distances within apartment complexes or on private roads are not included in this calculation. If you reside on a road that is not accessible by a school bus, your stop will be placed at the nearest accessible, safe location.
