Bus Emergency Form

Electronic Bus Emergency Forms are now available to complete online. Forms completed no later than 11:00 AM will allow the student to ride the same day afternoon route.

Students whose forms are completed after 11:00 AM on a school day will be assigned a bus beginning on the following day, the afternoon route.

Students are only allowed to ride a bus if they have a bus emergency form on file with the HCSD Dept. of Transportation. Students are only allowed 2 addresses (primary and alternate) to be picked up or dropped off which must be on their form. If you must change an address due to an emergency, please contact transportation at 228-255-6256 or email transportation@hancockschools.net. This must be approved by the transportation director before allowing the student to ride another bus that is not on their current bus form.
