FAQ:
Q: I filled out the Transportation Google Document to register my student for the bus. Do I need to fill out anything else?
A: YES. You still need to fill out the Returning Student Registration Forms on PowerSchool. The transportation Google Doc will be linked below FAQ.
Q: I moved, but still live in the area. Do I need to update my information?
A: YES! Please update your address in PowerSchool, and then email or bring in the following TWO new proof of residency documents.
--Mandatory: We need a copy of a tax bill showing your address, mortgage statement, OR current rental lease agreement.
--Additionally, one of the following: a recent power, gas or water bill with a service address matching your name and residence address.
Q: My student will be new to EES (but already attending a school within LCSD), so I should fill out NEW student registration, correct?
A: INCORRECT- if your student is currently attending a school in LCSD, you will fill out the RETURNING student registration forms in PowerSchool.
Q: I'm already registered for the bus this year, do I need to fill something out again?
A: YES. Please fill out the following Google form found at THIS LINK by May 31st:
Q: I cannot log in to PowerSchool. What do I do?
A: Please contact the school at 803-285-8484 to have your password reset or to find out your username.
Q: Can I fill out one set of documents for all my students?
A: NO. We need you to click on each student's profile and then fill out each set of forms. This should be a quick process if nothing has changed.
Q: I filled out the forms, but they still show pending. Should I fill them out again? Is there a problem?
A: NO. Once you fill them out they will show pending until they are manually reviewed and approved, which could take a little time. You will be contacted if there is a question. Your patience is appreciated.

It's that time of the year to request bus transportation for the 2025-2026 school year. We currently have approximately 9,000 students who ride the bus on a daily basis. It is CRITICAL that you click the Google link and respond immediately to reserve your child's spot on the bus for next year.
Drivers begin scheduling as soon as this school year has ended.
Parents can also log in to their PowerSchool Parent Portal Account - select "Forms" and complete forms under 25-26 Returning Student Registration. This will allow you to update all of your students' information at one time.
We appreciate your PROMPT attention to your child's bus request.
