Transportation |
The
Seoul
Student
Transportation
Office
(STO)
is
located
in
the
new
ACS
Building,
S-4106,
room
121,
and
we're
here
to
serve
our
community
with
safe
and
reliable
student
transportation
services.
Some
of
our
duties
include
coordinating
transportation
for
the
daily
commuting
bus
transportation,
pre-arranging
transportation
for
curricular
and
co-curricular
events
(field
trips,
sport
matches,
etc.),
providing
school
bus
safety
training
to
students,
and
issuing
school
bus
passes.
The
Seoul
STO
conducts
safety
inspections
on
all
school
bus
stops
and
buses
used
for
student
transportation
within
the
commuting
area.
We
also
work
closely
with
the
school
administrators,
housing
office,
and
various
base
commands
to
establish
the
walking
and
commuting
areas
for
the
local
Seoul
DoDDS
schools.
GUIDELINES
FOR
SCHOOL
BUS
TRANSPORTATION
Distance
requirements
are
one
of
the
primary
standards
for
school
bus
service.
In
general,
elementary
students,
grades
6
and
below,
are
authorized
school
bus
services
if
they
reside
more
than
one
mile
from
their
authorized
school.
Students
in
grades
7
and
above
are
authorized
school
bus
service
if
they
reside
more
than
one
and
one
half
miles
from
school.
For
the
Yongsan
area,
the
entire
post
has
been
designated
a
'walking
area'
as
no
school
busing
is
provided
except
in
the
case
of
children
with
special
education
needs.
Bus
stops
are
located
in
centralized
areas
of
the
school
bus
commuting
zone.
IAW
DOD
regulation
4500.36R,
students
may
be
required
to
walk
to
the
designated
bus
stop.
For
grades
6
and
below,
students
may
be
required
to
walk
up
to
one
mile
to
their
bus
stop.
For
grades
7
and
above,
students
may
be
required
to
walk
up
to
one
and
one
half
miles
to
their
bus
stop.
Space
required
students
are
authorized
to
ride
on
DoDDS
school
buses,
provided
they
reside
within
the
designated
commuting
area.
Prior
to
renting
or
leasing
any
off
base
housing,
members
should
check
with
the
local
STO
to
ensure
that
bus
service
is
available
for
the
area
they
intend
to
move
into.
It's
the
parents'
responsibility
to
transport
students
to
the
closest
bus
stop
within
the
commuting
area
if
they
reside
outside
the
designated
commuting
area.
Bus
stops
on
routes
are
established
to
service
the
community
and
it's
the
parents'
responsibility
to
ensure
that
the
student(s)
is/are
catching
the
bus
at
the
designated
bus
stop.
All
students
should
have
one
primary
pick-up
and
drop-off
bus
stop.
Students
should
be
at
their
assigned
bus
stop
at
least
10
minutes
prior
to
the
scheduled
departure
time.
Parents,
who
will
meet
children
in
the
afternoon,
should
be
at
the
bus
stop
10
minutes
prior
to
arrival.
An
adult
must
meet
students
in
grades
K-2.
Students
in
these
grades,
who
are
not
met
by
an
adult
at
the
bus
stop,
will
be
brought
back
to
the
Seoul
Student
Transportation
Office.
Once
returned
to
the
STO,
the
parents
will
be
contacted
to
pick-up
the
child.
