East Providence school bus transportation will always center on providing safe, responsible and effective transportation for our students.
First Student Bus Company, under the leadership of Manager Marjorie Rigo and a professional staff of qualified drivers, are trained to provide service to meet all our needs.
We currently service eligible students to thirteen East Providence Public Schools, twenty-six private and parochial schools, and twenty-six outside special education placement schools in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. We run a three-tier bus system delivering students to our high school for 7:30 AM, our middle schools for 8:00 AM, and our elementary schools for 8:30 AM.
Our policy for eligible bus students transported from home to school is as follows: high school students must reside over one and one-half miles from school; middle school students must reside over one mile from school; elementary school students Grades 1-5 must reside over three-quarters mile from school; and Kindergarten students must reside over one-half mile from school.
