General Information

Bus Running Late?

If your child’s bus is more than 10 minutes late and you’d like to check on its status, the fastest way to get that information is to call First Student, the district’s contracted bus service, directly. Simply call 314-863-9500 and the dispatcher will be able to check on the status of that route. They are in constant radio contact with the bus drivers and can also track our buses by GPS.

Bus Service Guidelines

When Students Should Be at the Bus Stop
Due to variations in weather and traffic, a bus may arrive at a scheduled stop within a five-minute window (earlier or later) of the time listed in the bus route schedules posted below. Therefore, parents/guardians are asked to make sure a student is at his/her assigned stop at least five minutes before the scheduled pick-up time.

The Ladue School District is experiencing significant revenue shortfalls due to the economic downturn. As a result, budget cuts targeted specifically in areas that least affect student learning have been made. Bus transportation costs have been examined to determine how to save on costs in this area, while limiting the inconvenience to parents and students to the extent possible.

Tthe following changes have been made from previous years:

Bus transportation is not provided for students living less than one mile from their school.
If a cul-de-sac, or neighborhood, is less than a half-mile deep from the main entrance, students at all grade levels will be picked up and dropped off from the entrance to the subdivision or street.
No individual house stops will be made unless specifically required by a student’s Individual Education Plan (IEP).
Late (Activity) bus service at Ladue Middle School will be provided on Tues & Thurs.
Late bus service from Ladue Horton Watkins High School will have 1 late bus on Mon & Fri & 2 late buses on Tues-Thurs.
