How to use the map:
  1. Open the map link.
  2. Copy and paste the family’s home address into the search bar.
  3. The map will show whether the address falls within our current bus zone.


Neighborhood Stops within CCS Boundaries (Flat Rate)
The goal of flat-rate pricing is to standardize and simplify transportation costs so families can easily calculate their investment over a 10-month pay period.

Examples:
  • One student riding round-trip for the year: $125/month
  • A family with three students: $325/month
  • One-way fares are also easy to calculate during the enrollment process

Are you outside the zone?
We have flexible solutions, including:
  • Coordinating pickup/drop-off at a safe and convenient public location within the bus zone
  • Using a family member’s or caregiver’s address that falls within the bus zone
  • Choose one of the designated stops outside the bus zone (see below)
“The biblical teachings they receive at home and church are reinforced in their school. They have grown more confident in their faith and love their school!”
