BUS SCHEDULE
2006
Two bus routes have been
established to accommodate
those students who live
the greatest distance away from the school.
Please be patient waiting
on the bus, as there may be road construction.
Busses will make scheduled runs and arrive
at Bedford High School at 8:30 AM each day of the week. Those participating in swimming and bowling will
be transported from BHS to Shawnee State Park and the Elks via the bus. The bus routes have been
established to accommodate as many people as possible. Students may ride the
bus to participate in any of the supervised mini-camps offered, or parents wishing to transport may drop students off at the
parking lot located beside the Bedford High School. By reviewing the bus routes estimate the time that the bus will pass by your nearest pick up
point.
***Any time that child rides a bus to our
mini-camps and is NOT using the bus to travel home please provide the bus driver with a written note.
