Do you qualify for busing?
General bus information => www.stswr.ca
The student login feature on our website will be available for use August 23, 2010. Parents and students will be able to login and view their transportation details for the next school year. Visit the site www.stswr.ca and click on student login.

To login you will have to enter the following information:
- Ontario Education Number (from report card)
- Students birth date (month, day, year)
- Street Number (street # from student’s home address)
- School (select school from the drop down)

Since most JK students will not have an OEN number prior to September, STSWR will be sending a direct mail out to the families of Junior and Senior Kindergarten students that will be transported next year. That information will be mailed out during the week of August 23rd.  A direct mail out will also be sent in August to the families with special needs students that will be transported in September. We will be posting instructions re: the student login on our site and would ask that you include the same in any newsletters, school web site or communications to parents.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Student Transportation Services of Waterloo Region at 519-650-4934 ext.221
