Denton ISD Transportation

  • Our Transportation Department is honored that you entrust us each day with the responsibility of getting your child to school safely and on time. We do not take this trust lightly. We aim to ensure that each student starts and ends their day with safe and efficient transportation.

    A student is eligible for transportation route services if he or she resides two or more miles from his or her campus with regular attendance measured along the shortest route to school from the property line of the residence to the property line of the school.

    Starting April 10, 2025 registration for Denton ISD transportation services will be through our Parent Portal App. If you need to register your child for the bus after the school year has begun, you will still use our Parent Portal App.
