Bussing:
Students will need to be at their bus stop for their usual morning pick-up time. Please visit our Bussing webpage here to view the bus schedule for 2026/2027. Please arrive a few minutes earlier than the posted time as these are approximate times only.

School District No. 48 has implemented a bus pass program for all student riders. The bus pass program is designed to enhance our safe, effective and efficient transportation system. All students needed school bus transportation are now required to register annually to receive a bus pass and to have a bus seat allocated to them. Please visit the SD 48 website here to access the registration form and for more details about ridership.

Please note that students should remain on campus for their transition breaks as there isn’t enough time to leave and return in time. Students are able to leave campus for their lunch break if they would like.

Student Fees/Lockers
Student fees are $20 and help support many of our school groups and leadership classes which organize numerous school-based functions and activities throughout the year. The student fees also include lock and locker rental as well as a student ID card.

Please note that users accounts are reset over the summer.  Please create a new account. Parents are able to pay student fees through SchoolCashOnline here beginning on September 15. In order to use this feature, the school must have your email address on file. After paying the student fee, there will be a one-business day delay before students will be able to select a locker. This can be done through our Locker Assignment website here. Your child’s student number is both the user id and password.

Fees may also be paid at the school office by cash or cheque made payable to Howe Sound Secondary School beginning on the third week of classes on September 22.   

**No technical support for lockers will be available from the office until the third week of classes.**
