Transportation

Richardson ISD continues to add Pre-K classrooms across the district. With the start of the 2024-25 school year, 33 elementary schools now offer a Pre-K classroom option which allows students to take advantage of this critical foundational educational opportunity at their home campus.

While Pre-K transportation needs have been reduced as a result of more Pre-K classrooms at more schools, some of our youngest learners do require and qualify for district transportation.  In those cases, the RISD Transportation Department will communicate directly with parents about transportation options. Required safety protocols will remain in place for all Pre-K students being transported, such as secure seating with a five point harness. RISD also provides an adult bus monitor on routes transporting Pre-K aged children. If families have questions regarding Pre-K transportation, please contact the RISD Transportation Department at student.transportation@risd.org or 469-593-5900.
