Dear GMRSD Families,
The bus routes that were previously provided by the bus company mistakenly included some locations that will not be bus stops. These errors have been corrected and the updated bus routes have been reposted to the district website.
Transportation is provided to all students that live 1.5 miles or further from their school, and the corrected bus routes (found at https://www.travelkuz.com/gill-montague) reflect this School Committee-approved policy.
