ASDW Transportation Notice 2021-2021
Message from ASDW Transportation Manager:
Starting in September 2020, we will not be able to
transport more than 48 students (for middle and high school students) and much
fewer than 48 when transporting Kindergarten to Grade 5 students on any of our
school buses. Although our requirements under Regulation 2001-51 are to
transport students to and from home, we understand that for many families,
alternate pick-up and drop-off locations are necessary. Considering this,
we are asking families to select only one pick-up and drop-off location for the
2020-21 school year. Should the pick-up or drop-off location need to
change, we require 5 school days’ notice. It is our utmost intent to
ensure that we best serve the families of our school district and we will try
accommodating as many requests as possible.
We ask that if you require a
pick-up or drop-off location other than your residence, please email us at asdw.ptms@nbed.nb.ca or
call 1-506-325-4582 to advise. We will
require the student’s name, address, grade, school, and alternate address
location (pick-up or drop-off) to accept any requests.
We appreciate your
support with this initiative.
Sincerely,
Daniel Wishart - Transportation
Manager
