PACE bus also provides several early routes each morning for students who need to get to school early. There are also additional routes in the afternoon for students who need to stay after school for athletic practice, extracurricular activities, or meetings with teachers.
Please note that on half days for students, PACE buses will run the normal routes in the morning. Buses will pick up students after school and run the afternoon routes at that time.
HALF DAY ATTENDANCE
On days when school is in session for a half day, PACE buses will run the normal routes in the morning. After school, buses will pick up at school approximately 30 minutes after school dismisses. The normal afternoon school routes on those days will not run.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The easiest way for students to utilize Pace Suburban Bus Service is by purchasing a Student Ventra card which costs $2. Student Ventra card must be purchased in the school bookstore. Bus fare can be purchased and loaded in each school’s bookstore or on the Ventra app. The bookstores accept cash, MasterCard, Visa, Discover or checks. Students are required to use their physical Ventra cards to ride the bus. It is recommended that students and parents also download the Ventra app to their phones in the event the card is lost or stolen. This will expedite being able to cancel the card and transfer the balance to a new card. Students are provided a discounted rate for fares with the Ventra card.
