Wisconsin Rapids Public Schools

The School District contracts with two private bus companies, Safe-Way Bus Transit, Inc., and Lamers Bus Lines, Inc., for transportation service for more than 3,000 students annually.

Students are eligible to receive free transportation if they live two or more miles from their attendance area school, or if their residence falls within an area that the school district has deemed to be an "unusual hazard."

Parents of students who live less than two miles from school and are in an area not considered hazardous are responsible for transportation unless available through the District “Parent-Pay” program.
