Student Transportation

Transportation

Many school districts provide bus transportation to The Neighborhood Academy for students in their school district. These school districts are listed below, along with options for parking on our campus lot when other transportation is not offered.

If you have questions regarding transportation, please contact Ronika Frank-Gray, Director of Administration at (412) 362-2001 x103.

Outside City of Pittsburgh

City of Pittsburgh

Families of charter, non-public, and parochial students desiring daily transportation must submit
an online request for service annually to ensure compliance with State regulations governed by
Act 372 of the PA School Code. Transportation assignments will not be carried over from school
year to school year. A new form must be submitted the summer prior to each school year.
 

Transportation will be provided based on the student's school of enrollment and eligibility based
on legal residence as confirmed in PPS' Student Information records. Each school is
responsible for sending enrollment information and/or rosters to PPS, verifying enrollment and
legal addresses.

Families will complete this online transportation form for each student for the 2024-2025 school
year. If you receive the confirmation page that your response is recorded, please do not submit
a second request unless your information changes.

To allow PPS time to arrange transportation, please make every effort to complete the form
by July 19, 2024. Families that complete the form by the deadline will receive a letter with the
Transportation arrangements approximately 14 days before the start of school. Late requests
could take up to 14 days to process, and transportation may not be ready by the first day of
school. Please do not contact the transportation office prior to two weeks before the start of
school or 14 days after the submission of your request, whichever is later.
 

Please visit the following link or scan the QR code on a phone or tablet to access the request
form. There is also a button available at pghschools.org/transportation. 

Student ID will be required to complete the request.

Student ID numbers can be obtained by reaching out to the Parent Hotline, 412‐529‐HELP
[4357], or parenthotline@pghschools.org.  The Parent Hotline operates Monday through
Friday, 6:30 AM – 4:00 PM
