Bentley Families, Another email was sent today with the new stop changes in it.

If your student no longer requires transportation or if you need any other transportation assistance, please contact: Tracy Bennett Email: tbennett@bentleyschools.org Office: (810) 591-9045 Mobile: (810) 701-9256 Thank you!

Bentley Community Schools Transportation Changes We are making two announcements today to give parents/guardians a heads-up about upcoming changes to transportation. First, we are making mid-season updates to our bus routes. Some students no longer need bus services, and new students have created the need for new stops. This has resulted in stop changes that may affect stop times and may include new route names: Changes will be finalized and announced on the afternoon of Monday, February 24th. The new stop schedule will begin on the morning of Tuesday, February 25th. Recognizing that accidents, traffic, trains, weather, and other conditions may affect stop times, we ask that students be at their bus stop at least five minutes early to help us stay on schedule. To ensure that you are receiving all transportation related notifications, please be sure that the schools have your current email address and mobile phone number (for texts). You can update that information in ParentVUE (Website or App) or by contacting the school offices (https://www.bentleyschools.org/). Second, bus driver training has begun on the final stages of implementing the new transportation system so that parents will be able to get up-to-the-minute stop time information using a smartphone app. The app will be officially rolled out in test phases by route, beginning with the Red routes. Other routes will be announced in the coming weeks once we are confident that the app is working properly. Official Red routes’ app testing will begin on the morning of Wednesday, February 26th. Another communication will be sent on Tuesday, February 25th to the Red routes’ parents/guardians on how to access the app. If your student no longer requires transportation or if you need any other transportation assistance, please contact: Tracy Bennett Email: tbennett@bentleyschools.org Office:(810) 591-9045 Mobile: (810) 701-9256 Thank you, Transportation Department Bentley Community Schools 1170 N. Belsay Rd, Burton, MI 48509
