2026 Summer School Course Guide Information on Transportation

*On May 22, 2026 - Alternate Transportation Registration Closed*

Transportation:  

The Waunakee Community School District works in partnership with Lamers Bus Company to provide transportation to and from summer school for our families. For the summer of 2026, all K-12 students registered for summer school that live within the transportation boundaries are automatically enrolled for transportation to and from their home address. Service will be available on the first day of summer school, Monday, June 22, 2026 and continue until July 30, 2026. There is no cost for this service for our families.

Transportation Opt-Out

We are asking for your partnership regarding transportation this summer. You can help alleviate the pressure on our bus system and allow us to not allocate resources for scheduling routes for families not choosing to use this service. You can assist us by opting-out of transportation for summer school programming. If you would like to opt-out of regular transportation for summer school, please complete this google form or on April 7th, 2026 this form is available in your  Infinite Campus School Store. Simply fill out the form, add it to your cart, and complete the checkout process. Once submitted, no further action is needed. Opt out forms filled out for the school year do not apply to summer school.

Alternate Transportation Requests

Alternate Transportation is transportation to or from any approved location other than your home address. Alternate transportation requests for Summer School must be submitted between April 7, 2026 and May 22, 2026. 

The Board of Education has approved transportation policy changes for the summer of 2026. These changes are being made to prioritize student safety as well as provide more consistent and predictable transportation for families. 

The major policy changes are:

The elementary shuttle system will be eliminated for the summer of 2026, with alternative transportation still available. Each elementary school will have direct bus routes for its students to approved alternative locations, including licensed daycare providers designated by the district. Previously, some students were transported between elementary buildings via a shuttle and then transferred to another bus to reach a daycare provider. The updated approach simplifies transportation by reducing transfers and providing more direct routes for students.

Alternative bus stop locations will be limited to ensure safe and reliable transportation. Each student may have one consistent morning pick-up location and one consistent afternoon drop-off location, which must remain the same from week to week. For students who reside in two parent or guardian households, both households may be designated as approved pick-up and drop-off locations, provided the schedule for each location is clearly established and remains consistent on a weekly basis.

After the registration deadline, no additional requests, extensions, or changes will be accepted for summer school transportation. All alternate transportation requests must be completed through the  Infinite Campus School Store. Requests submitted for the regular school year do not carry over and do not apply to summer school.

Transportation Exclusions
There is no busing provided during the middle of the Summer School day. There is no busing provided for music lessons that end outside of the normal Summer School hours. There is no summer school transportation for swimming lessons, strength and conditioning, August Training Camp, Camp Invention, or any of the music camps.

Deadlines

There will be no exceptions this year with late deadlines or not registering for alternate transportation. This is transportation to a location other than home address.

Your transportation routes/times for Session 1 will be available in Infinite Campus and My Ride K-12 App on June 15th, 2026 . Session 2 routes will be available in Infinite Campus/My Ride K-12 App the afternoon of  July 3, 2026.
