Transportation, Parking, and Getting Here

Central Okanagan Public Schools Transportation provides bus service across Lake Country, Kelowna, West Kelowna and Peachland, and families must submit an online transportation application. Students must be registered on a route to ride, and only registered riders may be transported (no guest riders). Riders are expected to follow bus safety rules such as arriving at the stop 10 minutes early, remaining seated while the bus is moving, and crossing only when it is safe and the driver signals. Transportation fees (if assigned a seat) are applied through School Cash Online, with payment due within 30 days; subsidies may be available for financial hardship.

Enrollment

Central Okanagan Public Schools directs families to enroll by (1) finding their catchment school, (2) watching the enrolment application video tutorial, and (3) completing the district enrolment application online. The district also lists required documentation (proof of age/citizenship and proof of B.C. residency/address) that must be provided after completing the application.
