As extreme heat conditions are forecasted to continue this week, we encourage students to fill up a water bottle before leaving campus in the afternoon. Just like any vehicle, our buses struggle to cool off in intense heat conditions due to their size and the door opening frequently between loading at campuses and at numerous stops throughout routes.
Please remember to also check the Ride 360 app for information regarding drop-off or pick-up times.
