Families FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What age does my child need to be for Kindergarten or Transitional Kindergarten (TK)?

When is the first day of school for 2026-27?

Are school meals free?

Will there be school bus service this year?

PUSD will not offer general home-to-school transportation during the 2026–2027 school year. Transportation will be limited to students whose services are required by law or identified through an individual student plan or program.

The district will retain two large buses and five smaller special education buses. The larger buses may be used for academic field trips and student opportunities, including Plumas to Pacific, Career Technical Education activities, and college exploration trips. Unfortunately, the district will not be able to provide transportation for athletic events during the 2026–2027 school year.

Important: Students must have a completed Bus Ridership Application on file before they are allowed to ride the school bus for field trips throughout the school year.

"Off & Away" Mobile Device Policy

Students will not be permitted to use personal mobile devices—including phones, smartwatches, tablets, or wireless earbuds—from the time they arrive on campus until they leave. District-issued Chromebooks will continue to be used for educational activities. If a student needs to contact home, they may use the school office phone.

"Off & Away" means devices must remain off and out of sight for the entire school day. To abide by this policy, students should leave devices at home, or turn them off and store them in backpacks for the day.

Learn more about this policy and the decision making behind it on our PUSD Mobile Device Policy page.
