Transportation Procedures

FCPS will provide transportation assistance for homeless students so that the student may remain at his/her school of origin. This transportation is arranged through the Homeless Liaison’s office and may be by school bus, cab, or public transportation. It takes three to five working days for transportation arrangements to be put in place. Transportation can also be arranged to accommodate those students who participate in after school activities. Once transportation is set up the parent/guardian is called and advised of the start date and time of the transportation.

To obtain transportation assistance, please e-mail the following information to Kathi Sheffel at kathi.sheffel@fcps.edu. The e-mail should include the following information:

Student’s name & ID#
Name and address of the school that the student will attend
Address where the student is to be picked up
Name and contact number for the parent or guardian
