Busing and Transportation
Edmonton Classical Academy offers yellow bus service for students from all areas of the city through First Student bus company. We use community-based congregated stops designed to balance the cost of transportation, overall trip length, student safety, and family convenience. Because we are a small school serving students from across the city, we cannot guarantee that bus stops will be walking distance from families’ homes; some families may need to drive to access their assigned community stop.
Information on transportation fees can be found on the School Fees page. Parents interested in carpooling as an alternative to bussing are encouraged to use our parent facebook page or chat group to connect with others in their community (see the bottom of this page for more information).
Bus Routes
Students are required to be at their stop 5 minutes prior to the time indicated. To check on the status of your bus, call First Student’s dispatch service at 825-410-5980 or download the FirstView app (see instructions here). To obtain the district code, please contact the office directly.

Carpooling and Bus Alternatives
The bus routes have been created based on the addresses of the parents who registered and paid their Bus Service deposit fee. However, we understand that they may not be able to accommodate all families.
The bus routes will be reviewed within the first three weeks of school based on parent and driver feedback and the needs of new bus registrants.
The parent community has created Telegram groups as a platform to help families to find creative solutions for carpooling. See links to these groups below:
