Programs and Services

ERASE (Expect Respect and A Safe Education) The school site links to information about an “ERASE Family Session” and references ERASE as “Expect Respect and A Safe Education.” Transportation / school bus service School District No. 67 provides bus transportation across Penticton, Summerland, Naramata, and Kaleden, with eligibility based on distance from a student’s catchment school. Families must register yearly, pay required fees through School Cash Online, and complete the district’s bus registration process (the district does not register by phone). Bus service is only for registered riders, uses bus passes, and does not provide transportation to after-school activities or to locations other than the student’s home address(es); riders are expected to follow the School Bus Riders Code of Conduct.

School Culture and Expectations

The school references ERASE—“Expect Respect and A Safe Education”—and the district notes that bus riders must comply with the School Bus Riders Code of Conduct to maintain bus service registration.

Transportation, Parking, and Getting Here

The district transportation department operates school bus routes serving Naramata and other communities in SD67. Eligibility is based on walk limits (Grades K–7: more than 2.5 km from the catchment school; Grades 8–12: more than 3.2 km). Families must register and pay a registration fee via School Cash Online, then complete the online bus registration form; only registered riders may board, bus passes are required, and students are assigned runs based on their home address on file. The district does not provide busing to after-school activities, friends’ homes, or daycares.
