The primary mission of the Splendora ISD Transportation Department is to provide students with safe and secure transportation to and from school in a friendly environment that supports the total learning process.
To accomplish this mission, our team is committed to:
- Modeling courtesy, mutual respect, and understanding with students, parents, and colleagues.
- Greeting all who enter our environment with a smile, encouragement, and a positive attitude.
- Developing and improving communication with teachers, staff, parents, and students.
- Ensuring that buses function at the highest possible levels of safety, cleanliness, and comfort.
- Maintaining professional conduct and appearance at all times for both students and the public.
- Enhancing the public's perception of Splendora ISD through excellence in transportation.
Bus Service Guidelines
In accordance with state transportation guidelines, Splendora ISD does not provide bus transportation for students residing within a two-mile radius of their assigned residential neighborhood school, such as Greenleaf Elementary, Splendora Junior High, or Timber Lakes Elementary. Families living within this boundary are responsible for arranging transportation.
Splendora ISD uses Transfinder, a school bus routing software, to create designated bus stops. Walk distances are set at:
- Up to 3/10 of a mile for elementary students
- Up to 5/10 of a mile for the Coleman 6th-Grade Campus, Splendora Junior High, and Splendora High School students
For time and cost efficiency, buses cannot travel every road within the district, so some bus stops may be farther than the walk-to-stop guideline. Whenever a bus travels a road twice, we design a bus stop to prevent students from crossing in front of the bus. Please be aware that students may arrive home sooner or board the bus later; however, we do not want to deviate from this practice for the sake of our students' safety.
We ask that students arrive at their bus stop five minutes before the scheduled time to avoid missing the bus. Parents are responsible for their child's travel between home and the designated stop. Please note that inclement weather or traffic congestion may cause routes to run later than usual.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact the Splendora ISD Transportation Department at 281-689-4322.
