Elkin City Schools is excited to announce the arrival of two brand-new 2025 model school buses, marking a significant milestone in student transportation safety. These buses, which rolled out for their first routes on Friday, January 24, 2025, are the first in the district to feature seatbelts in every seat, accommodating three passengers per row.

This enhancement reflects the district’s steadfast commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of all students as he feels that these new buses are a significant upgrade for our transportation fleet equipping every seat with seatbelts which provides an added layer of security for our students and certainly an investment in student safety.

The district’s celebration of this achievement comes just in time for Love the Bus Month in February. This annual observance highlights the importance of school transportation and honors the dedication of bus drivers and transportation staff.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to learn more about student transportation services by visiting the district’s Transportation Department at elkincityschools.org. Families can also sign up for MyRide K12 and download the app for real-time bus updates and notifications.

Elkin City Schools remains committed to delivering safe, reliable, and modern transportation for all students. These advancements ensure that the district continues to lead the way in providing safe and secure travel for the future of education.
