School transportation woes continued Friday in Alaska's Mat-Su Borough as schools informed families that no busing will be available for students involved in high school sports or activities for a month starting Monday.
Durham School Services buses traveling on Crusey Street in Wasilla on Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022.
The Anchorage School District has no plans to make any changes to extracurricular busing, according to spokesman MJ Thim. The district changed the activity bus plan a few years ago given ongoing transportation challenges, Thim said. “At this time ... families need to work with their school teams to figure out how to provide transportation,” Morrissey said.
Student drivers should not provide transportation out of the district to other students, a notice from Colony High School said.
