The bus assignment process has been completed for the 2023-24 school year.

Thank you to all the registrants who have complete the online registration form by the July 15 deadline. We have received more Eligible registrations this year than many of our previous years. Our Transportation Department worked hard over the summer to accommodate as many riders as possible. 

NOTE: The Courtesy award process is complete, and seat awards have been finalized. If you have not been contacted by your student’s school, a seat was not awarded. Due to more courtesy applications than there were seats available, many courtesy students who were awarded seats in previous years did not receive a seat this year.

Eligible Student Registration can still be completed by filling out the ‘APPLY for STUDENT BUSING form.pdf’ (found under Resources). 

Students who apply after Labour Day are not guaranteed a seat on the bus.

Applicants will be notified by return email of status of the bus registration. Due to high call volumes and manual processing times, it may take up to 10 school days to process the request.

Families are responsible for providing transportation for their student to and from school until a seat may be awarded.

Please refer to  before completing the registration form.

To adhere to legislated requirements to maintain accurate bus lists,

registration is required for all bus riders and must result in a seat assignment. 

STUDENTS MUST RE-APPLY FOR BUSING PRIOR TO EACH NEW SCHOOL YEAR. 

ONLINE REGISTRATION OPENS APRIL 15 AND CLOSES JULY 15.

 APPLICATIONS RECEIVED AFTER THE JULY 15 DEADLINE HAS PASSED

will be processed BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 15 and may take up to 10 SCHOOL DAYS.

Applications received during the school year will be processed within 10 school days.

STUDENTS CANNOT BEGIN TO TAKE THE BUS UNTIL THE REGISTRATION HAS BEEN PROCESSED,

A SEAT HAS BEEN AWARDED, AND A SCHEDULE HAS BEEN ISSUED.

We advise filling out the online registration form (April 15 - July 15) as it is the quickest way to get your student on the registration list. (Please complete the ‘APPLY for STUDENT BUSING form.pdf’ if you have missed the online registration period. Students who miss the deadline are not guaranteed a seat on the bus.)

If you have any questions or require assistance, please email: FACL-Transportation-Mail@surreyschools.ca

It's important to note that during peak periods the volum of requests is high (which includes but is not limited to the start of registration in late Spring and the start of the school year in September). Staff will do their best to acknowledge having received your email within 48 hours. Please note that it could take up to 10 working days.
