Bus routes will be available here on this website for a limited time only, with the exception of unique circumstances.  New Hanover County Schools operate over 600 runs each school day.  Due to numerous changes in routes, stops, riders and times throughout the school year, please download the Edulog Parent Portal bus tracking phone application.  Once your child is registered, it will have the most up-to-date route information. 

Also, some riders from different schools will be on consolidated buses.  Examples are Gregory/Snipes/Freeman/DC Virgo/Lake Forest may ride the same bus depending on residence locations.

In the interest of student safety, NHCS prohibits the discharge of unattended students who are Pre-Kindergarten through 2nd Grade.  ALL Pre-Kindergarten students must be met at their stop by a parent/legal guardian or a named designee in advance in writing.  If a parent/legal guardian wishes their Kindergarten through 2nd Grade student to be permitted to depart the school bus without the parent/legal guardian present, they must complete and submit a “Parent/Legal Guardian Permission Form For Bus Stop Drop-Off” which can be obtained from the school office or downloaded from the links below.  Without these forms submitted and processed, K through 2nd Grade riders will be returned to school and released to school personnel.
