School bus transportation plays a critical role in the education of our nation's students, serving as the direct link between our neighborhoods and the classroom. More than 25 million children ride the yellow bus every school day, and National School Bus Safety Week is a vital reminder for motorists, parents, students, and our entire community to keep bus safety top of mind.

This year's national theme is "Safe Rides, Everyday Heroes."

Thank you to our amazing KCS transportation staff and bus drivers for safely navigating our roads every day!

FAQ Friday | KCS GO Bond

Districtwide View: โ€œWhat Else Is Included?โ€

The proposed GO Bond reaches far beyond Jackson Park and A.L. Brown to address critical facility needs across our entire district!

Beyond our two largest projects, the plan identifies essential updates across KCS, including HVAC, electrical replacements, roofs, parking lots, and more at North Kannapolis, Fred L. Wilson, G.W. Carver, and Shady Brook.

Wondering about lottery money? KCS does receive lottery funds, but those smaller annual dollars are already supporting ongoing safety and accessibility upgrades.

Don't forget early voting is officially underway!
