Transportation FYI

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB -

All  buses depart from Pinewood and drop off at Boys and Girls Club. 

If your student rides the bus from Pinewood to Boys and Girls Club, the bus color that they would ride would be the bus color that services their home location. 

If, at any time your student needed to ride the bus home in case of an emergency they would know their driver, and they would be on the correct bus not only to take them to Boys and Girls Club but also to take them home.

Transportation Information

Our transportation department is located at 2702 Amber trail, just behind Sierra Ridge Middle School and the District Office. We have  five buses and transport over 300 children per school day. Transportation fee information may be obtained from the district office, 530.644.5416, or the transportation department, 530.644.3750. We are always looking for good bus driver candidates. If you are interested, give us a call.

The transportation department may be reached at 530.644.3750. All questions regarding any aspect of home-to-school transportation, bus routes, schedule times, or employment opportunities, should be directed to our transportation department at the above telephone number.

Please note that we are unable to accommodate additional students on our bus routes.  Students wishing to ride a bus to a friend’s house will need to arrange their own transportation.  Our buses run close to capacity each day with students who are assigned to designated buses.  We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
