  1. Eligibility and registration

    Students are eligible for the school bus if:

    • they live more than 3.2 kilometres by the nearest passable road from their school; and
    • they're attending their attendance area school.

     

    Registration for the 2023-24 school year is now open. 


  2. How to register for the school bus

    Registration for the 2023-24 school year is now open. 

    1. Complete the Annual School Bus Registration form.

    2.Submit your form to the Student Transportation branch:

    3. Submit 1 registration form for all children who live at the same home address.

    Rural buses

    Contact the school directly for busing options if you're a parent or guardian in a rural area.

    Riding to an alternative bus stop

    When you register your child, they're registered to take the school bus from your home to the school and back.

    Submit requests for your child to ride the school bus to a location other than your home address to student.transportation@yukon.ca.

    Make this request at the start of the school year if you can.

    We consider these requests based on:

    • the available space on the bus; and
    • existing bus routes

  3. City of Whitehorse Transit passes

    Whitehorse high school students can take the city bus instead of a school bus. Students who choose the city bus receive free Whitehorse Transit passes and are not eligible to ride a school bus.

    You must:

    1. Complete the public transit registration form.
    2. Submit your form to the Student Transportation Branch.

    3. You must follow the Whitehorse Transit Passenger Code of Conduct when you take the bus.

    To replace a transit pass, contact the City of Whitehorse in person at 187 Range Road, email transit@whitehorse.ca or phone 867-668-8396.
