Highlands Ranch and all Douglas County Students Will Pay for Bus Rides to School
Beginning in August, the students of the Douglas County School District will begin to pay for their rides to school, if they wish to take the bus in all of the Denver suburbs that the district serves.
For as long as I can remember, the bus has been an issue of discussion where I live in Highlands Ranch. There were years that people wished the bus had extended routes. There were years that people wanted more buses. There were years that those that lived in the neighborhoods wanted less buses. Recently we have seen times where there are fewer buses with fewer stops and more kids being driving to the stops, or having longer walks to get there. This has caused some traffic and safety issues near the stops.
The latest school budget cuts in Douglas County have left the school district incredibly short on their budget to say the least and creative solutions have had to be found to cut costs. Like it or not, the students in Douglas County CO will now pay $.50 per ride if they wish to ride the bus.
Douglas County Schools covers Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Parker, Castle Rock, Castle Pines, Sedalia, Larkspur, and small parts of Littleton.
