Transportation

The Berkshire Local Schools, in conjunction with First Student, are committed to transporting each and every one of our students to and from school safely and efficiently. Drivers go through a great deal of training to obtain and maintain their Commercial Driver’s License. District buses are properly maintained and are subjected to detailed inspections throughout the year by the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

Transportation of Students Enrolled in Nonpublic Schools

In accordance with Ohio Revised Code 3327.01, the Berkshire Board of Education must determine eligibility for transportation services to students residing in the Berkshire Local School District, who are in grades K through 12, and enrolled in chartered nonpublic or community schools.

For the district to make such a determination, the parent/guardian must complete and submit the Transportation Request Form for Nonpublic School Students (form below) no later than June 15th of the preceding school year. Requests received after the deadline will NOT be accepted.*

If a determination of 'impractical to transport' is made, the Superintendent of Berkshire Schools will send notification to the applicant by July 15th of the preceding school year, in accordance with RC 3327.02. A contract between the Board of Education and the Parent must be signed and on file.

It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to notify the Superintendent of any changes in home address or school of attendance.
Prior to the end of the school year a record to verify attendance must be on file before a reimbursement can be made.
Payments will be sent out in July for those forms that were returned on time.
