Transportation requestsGuidelines for WISD Vehicle Requests
Transportation requests for academic field trips or athletic events are scheduled through the SKYWARD software at your campus. However, transition to this software is not complete. Until it is, please email or call Shan Berrios at shan.berrios@wylieisd.net or 972.429.2318 or 972.429.2300 to schedule transportation.
Requests for transportation assets must be made 10 days prior to the scheduled event. See your designated campus representative to submit a transportation request. You may ask your principal or the Athletic Director for assistance.
Each campus is responsible for keeping a roster of its students riding in each district vehicle during all trips. Copies of these rosters should also be kept at the campus and available for immediate use.
An adult sponsor from the requesting campus will ride in each district vehicle during all trips. The adult chaperone is responsible for maintaining order and discipline in the vehicle during the trip.
The district charges campuses mileage and driver’s pay for the use of its vehicles. The mileage charge for any size bus operated by a transportation employee is $4.00 per mile. Coaches receive $40 for driving a bus and a mileage stipend of $2.00 per mile. Drivers are not paid to drive a district Suburban and transportation does not provide drivers for the Suburbans. A $.50 per mile fee is charged for the use of a Suburban.
Thank you for your cooperation,
