Student Transportation
Student transportation is provided at no cost to all students living greater than 2.39 km from Win Ferguson School. Families accessing payride or school-of-choice busing pay a fee for this service. General information, applicable fees, and FAQs about busing are available on the Student Transportation page of the EIPS' division website.
All families using EIPS' student transportation services should have received a letter in May outlining route information and times as well as applicable fees. We encourage parents to take advantage of the EIPS' secure online payment option to pay transportation fees. Pay before June 30 and save $25.
Our Principal is Mr. Ralph Sorochan
