Will students still be provided with transportation to and from school for 2023-2024?

In July 2022, the Board of Education made several changes to Policy 5200 Student Transportation, including a requirement that all students who qualify for bus transportation must register to receive transportation, beginning with the 2023-2024 school year. The mandatory transportation registration process will be available for families to elect in HCPSS Connect Synergy in the spring of 2023.

What was the process to change start times?

On April 15, 2021, the Board of Education directed the Superintendent to review and evaluate the current student school start times and to prepare a recommendation regarding suggested new start times for submission to the Board of Education. The HCPSS Student Transportation Office worked with an independent consultant, Decision Support Group, to analyze current start times, bell schedules and transportation routes and develop a plan that could adjust school opening times.

Will the course cost be refunded if I withdraw from a summer program course?

Tuition paid by cash, check, or money order will be refunded in the form of a check mailed to the issuer once the refund request is processed. Refunds by check may take 4–6 weeks to process. Tuition paid by credit card will be refunded to the credit card in accordance with the credit card company’s refund procedure less the service charge.
