Summer Learning Activity: Play "I Spy"
Hello Hawkins County Schools Families,
To improve bus service for all students, we are asking every family who needs bus transportation for the 2025-2026 school year to complete a new online form.
This quick form will help us create more accurate bus routes, schedules, and student lists, ensuring your child has a safe and reliable ride to school. This form must be completed each year for every student who plans to ride the bus.
Please complete the form here: https://bit.ly/HCSbusform
We will have computers available at back-to-school nights for any family who needs assistance. Thank you for helping us keep our students safe!

The above link is for the 2025-2026 Hawkins County Schools Bus Transportation Request.
This is a form that will now be required each year for every student requesting bus transportation. This is the only way to ensure that the appropriate students are assigned to routes and that route times and ridership numbers are correct for the upcoming year. We will be posting this to our Facebook page, the webpage, requesting that the schools share to their respective pages and we will also be sending out a notification all-call beginning Monday to start this process. Additionally, we would request that each school site have a laptop or access available during back-to-school nights for parents that come through and need to complete the form during that time who may not have access to a computer at home.
We understand that this is a change from the "norm" that everyone is accustomed to, but it will be a best practice for the transportation department moving forward working with the Transfinder routing software as we have gained more knowledge about how to utilize its function and design to improve our student transportation data. This will allow us to provide the schools and parents with the MOST accurate information regarding the bus routes, student ridership and times. Transporting students safely always remains our highest priority!
