Transportation, Parking, and Getting Here
Campbell River School District provides school bussing as a courtesy (free of charge) for eligible students who live beyond walking limits to their nearest public school (K–3: more than 4 km; Grades 4–12: more than 4.8 km). Families who need bus transportation must apply online for a bus pass each school year; bus riders scan their pass when boarding, which supports safety and allows late-bus notifications and emergency communications. Students should arrive at the bus stop at least 5 minutes before pick-up time, and families are expected to have an alternate plan if a bus is late or does not arrive.
Enrollment
The Cedar Elementary website includes a “Register my child” link for student registration.
