Bus Transportation
Bus Transportation
PACT partners with American Transportation and Kottkes to provide safe passage for our students to and from school. Buses have the PACT logo near the bus door, and many drivers have been with us for many years, so students are known and cared for.
Service Areas
PACT provides free transportation throughout most of the Anoka-Hennepin School District area, as well as portions of the Elk River School District and St. Francis School District. Twelve routes serve over 100 bus stops in Andover, Anoka, Blaine, Champlin, Coon Rapids, Elk River, Nowthen, Oak Grove, Ramsey, and St. Francis. Most are "satellite stops" and require parents to drive to. For the safety of our students, bus routes are not published online.
Bus Registration
Families who wish to have their students use bus transportation need to complete a Bus Transportation Registration Form. This form only needs to be filled out once and does not require annual renewal unless you move to a new address.
Resources
MyStop App
American Transportation offers a School Bus Tracking App called "MyStop." Call or text the MyStop app hotline at 612-900-7821 for more information. Use this number for app questions, and do not contact the American Dispatch, as they will direct you to this number.

Secondary students with siblings at the Elementary Campus can take the Blue or Gray bus at the end of the day at the Secondary Campus to go to the Elementary Campus for vehicle pick-up. This way, families with students at both campuses will only need to enter the pick-up line at the Elementary Campus rather than both schools. Since buses will not arrive at the Elementary Campus until 3:15 p.m., families are advised to arrive after 3:15 p.m. to help keep the vehicle line moving for those only picking up Elementary students.

- Please use the crosswalk controlled by the Safety Patrol at all times
- Please do not park in the parking lot and expect your student to cut across and between cars; instead, use the designated car line.
- Students should exit the vehicle on the passenger side.
- Students may exit the vehicle in the morning anywhere along the sidewalk; however, please pull forward to maintain the flow of traffic.
- Please be patient, attentive, and calm.
- Vehicles must yield to buses on school property.
