School Basics in Santa Clarita Valley
When Do Classes Begin in the Fall?
Check our calendar link above for the dates classes resume for the Fall semester.


School Boundaries
If you click on the above link and choose "Attendance Boundaries," you can either view a map displaying school boundaries or look up the school your child will attend by entering your home address.


School Bus Route
Bus service is available through the City of Santa Clarita Transit for Junior High and High School children. Follow the link above for routes, schedules and rules.

Because elementary students live within walking distance of their schools, bus service is not provided. A map provides a suggested route to school for both passengers and vehicles.

Code of Conduct for Student Bus Riders
In an effort to ensure the safe and comfortable transportation of all students, the City of Santa Clarita and William S. Hart Union High School District have jointly produced a “Code of Conduct” pamphlet designed to explain bus rules and appropriate student-rider behavior.
