The East Baton Rouge Parish School System is consistently one of the largest pupil transportation fleets in the state, providing regular, special education, and extracurricular transportation to students. Additionally, EBRPSS provides transportation services for non-profit entities and for the State of Louisiana in emergency situations.
We are committed to our students, parents, and community. We will conduct business in an ethical and professional manner with a commitment to nurturing and supporting student growth. We will always work to go the extra miles to deliver students safely, timely, and professionally.
Students must arrive at their bus stop at least ten minutes before the assigned pick-up time on their bus card.
Parents/legal guardians must report to their student’s home school or specialized magnet program to request transportation if their student lives more than a mile from their assigned school.
Parents will have to contact their student’s home school or school of choice to request transportation for Special Needs students.
Special requests are approved or denied within 48 hours of submission.
