Students living over 2.4 kilometres from their designated school may receive transportation at no cost. For other transportation services (school of choice, in-town busing, and yard services), the Board establishes and collects transportation fees where necessary. Should fees be established, it will be done in accordance with Alberta Government regulations and at rates established in accordance with Board policy.
