School Bus Cancellation: Elementary Schools

Posted On Thursday November 26, 2020

Cancellation of School Buses to Elementary Schools Due to Winter Weather

With colder temperatures approaching, we are sharing information on how the DDSB approaches the cancellation of buses due to winter weather in order to ensure everyone remains safe. 

In the event that transportation services are cancelled due to inclement weather, elementary schools will remain open. This is the same approach as in previous years and we will be taking extra health and safety measures in order to ensure that class cohorts remain intact and are appropriately supervised.

How will I be notified if transportation services are cancelled and/or schools are closed?

Families will be notified as soon as possible (no later than 7:00am) through a posting on the DDSB website, social media and where possible, through local radio stations.

What zone am I in?

Students and families can find a list of schools within each weather zone by visiting Durham Student Transportation Services at https://www.dsts.on.ca/inclement-weather.

Zone 1 (Brock Area), Zone 2 (Uxbridge Area), Zone 3 (Scugog Area), Zone 4 (Southern Area).
