Transportation

Transportation is provided to High School Specialty Centers, Governor’s Schools and CodeRVA.

Specialty centers inside the student’s attendance zone will ride their regular neighborhood bus to and from school.

For students attending a specialty center outside their attendance zone, a governor’s school or CodeRVA:

Morning

Specialty Centers, Governor’s Schools and CodeRVA

• Students ride a bus to the middle school in their attendance zone (with the exception of Tomahawk Middle – see note below)

Students who attend a center-based gifted (CBG) site in their attendance zone will ride their regular neighborhood bus to and from school.

For students attending a CBG site outside of their attendance zone:

Morning

Parents must provide transportation to a designated express bus stop – a group pick-up/drop-off location within three miles of their home. If a student’s home is located beyond the three-mile radius, the family should contact their area transportation office to discuss establishing a bus stop on a main artery road.

Afternoon

Tomahawk Creek Middle School students attending CBG sites at Swift Creek Middle School will ride buses to TCMS where they will board their neighborhood bus to go home.
All other students will be transported to the high school in their attendance zone where they will be supervised until boarding a high school bus that will take both high school and CBG students to their neighborhood bus stops.
Note that after-school supervision is not available for CBG students at CBG sites, TCMS or high schools after those schools are dismissed.

Parents who pick up their child after dismissal should do so at their CBG site. Parents who wish to pick up their child at their home high school or TCMS must follow pick-up procedures for those sites.

Due to inclement weather

When CCPS is closed due to weather, no transportation is provided.

Due to a Chesterfield County student holiday

When CCPS is closed but governor’s schools and CodeRVA remain open, parents must provide morning transportation to the middle school in their attendance zone. The bus departure schedule is below. From the middle schools, a bus will take students to governor’s schools and CodeRVA. In the afternoon, students will ride the bus directly to their express bus stop.
