School Bus Passes
Castro Valley Unified School District is pleased to be welcoming students back for the
2022-2023 school year!
Due to limited space, some of the routes and schedules have more applicants than we have space available. We will be offering a lottery for the bus passes again this year. A waitlist for future passes will be generated if needed during this lottery.
At this time there are 3 types of passes being offered. They are as follows: Annual, Fall semester only, and Spring semester only. All passes are good for both AM and PM.
Bus route can be viewed here. All route stop locations and times are for 2022-2023 school year. Review routes carefully as there are changes from previous years.
ROUTE A CVHS 5 CANYONS/PALOMARES and CVE middle school only
ROUTE B PROCTOR/LAKE CHABOT middle school only
ROUTE C STANTON area/BART middle school only
ROUTE D 5 CANYONS/PALOMARES middle school only
CREEKSIDE Wednesday Morning Collaboration
For the lottery, you can only sign up for one bus stop location. This stop will be for both pick up and drop off. If your student needs an additional pick up or drop off location (after school tutoring, day care, multiple family addresses), this will need to be authorized thru the Transportation Department after the first day of school.
BUS PASS PRICING
ANNUAL -------------------------$565.00
SEMESTER-----------------------$350.00
Fall semester 8-9-2022 – 12-22-2022
Spring semester 12-23-2022 – 6-2-2023
LOTTERY SIGNUP
To sign up for the lottery, please select the desired route and stop while filling out the Google registration form below. If you are entering more than one student, you will need to fill out a separate registration form for each student. If either of your students are drawn the other student in the same family will automatically be selected as well.
To ensure privacy, for the lottery process, we will utilize the STUDENT NUMBER (a 4 digit number for middle school students and a 5 digit number for high school students) found in the AERIES Portal. During the registration we will need both the STUDENT ID NUMBER and the STUDENT NUMBER. Please refer to the AERIES Portal before registering your student to ensure a smooth process.
