Follow the link below for instructions on how to fill out the form.. Please note that the request must be for the same location five (5) days a week. The pick-up location can be different from the drop-off location if it is within the child's school attendance area. The request for change must be submitted by July 15th to ensure accurate busing on the first day of school.

Instruction to fill out the Transportation Change Request Form

Students are ONLY permitted to ride the bus or van to which they are assigned. Bus passes are only to be used for emergency child care situations. They should not be requested for students to visit friends, attend birthday parties, sleep-overs, or frequent child-care changes.  Requests for these reasons may be denied.

If you live on a state-designated hazardous road and your child's bus stop will be a home stop and not at a street corner, your child MUST be waiting at the end of the sidewalk or driveway.

The district requires new proof of residency if you move during the school year--current mortgage/deed or lease, valid driver's license, current utility bill. Proof of residency should be presented at the District Administrative Offices at the addresses listed below. New busing will be arranged at that time which can take up to 5 (five) business days. Parents/guardians of students who attend private/parochial schools are required to bring proof of residency to the Gateway School District Administrative Offices located at 9000 Gateway Campus Boulevard, Monroeville, PA 15146.
