The mission of the USD #258 Transportation Department is to provide safe, cost-effective, high quality transportation for students.
USD #258 Humboldt School District provides transportation to and from school for students living 2.5 miles or more from school. The State of Kansas reimburses school districts for transportation of students to and from school who live 2.5 miles and over from their school. The Humboldt School District will transport these students without charge. However, school districts in Kansas receive no funds for transportation of students living less than 2.5 miles from their school.
Transportation arrangements for special education students will be made to meet their needs.
