School Bus Information Handbook
Welcome to the Issaquah School District. This handbook was prepared by the Issaquah School District Transportation Department to provide useful information to parents and students. It includes information about student conduct, school bus rules, emergency evacuation procedures, bus passes, parent-driver communication and other important information. We enjoy working with the District’s children, and we look forward to making their daily bus ride a safe and pleasant experience. You can reach the Transportation Department by calling 425-837-6330.
