Concord Transportation Department

Welcome to Concord Community Schools! We hope you find this section of the website beneficial in answering some of your questions related to transportation.

Currently, the Concord Transportation Department consists of 29 bus drivers who utilize a fleet of 37 school buses to transport about 4,100 students (more than 75% of our student body) to and from school. We employ two on-site mechanics to help service and maintain our vehicles.

We travel an average of 1,200 miles per day, covering the 28 square miles of Concord and other Elkhart County locations.

Seven schools are serviced as we meet the transportation needs of our general education, special education, preschool, Head Start, Alternative School, and Elkhart Area Career Center students.

Every school year we provide over 30,000 miles of extracurricular travel for our athletes, musicians, and academic students.  

Our department takes great pride in safely transporting students. We are ready to serve you and your child.

Call us at 574-875-6577 if you have further questions.

Important Announcements

New Routing Software | Bus Right

Our Transportation Department is transitioning to a new routing software, BusRight, which will allow you to track your child’s bus route to and from school, receive notifications when a bus route begins and ends, and view the expected arrival time at your child’s bus stop. NOTE: Please be aware that bus transportation is only available to students who live within the district boundaries. 

Invitations to sign-up for the BusRight app were emailed in July 2024 from the address “support@busright.com” with the subject line “You’re Invited to BusRight.” If you did NOT receive an email invitation, please email support@busright.com. 

Please follow these instructions:

  1. Download the BusRight app to your phone or other device. More information can be found on this flyer

  2. If your child’s route is not viewable in the app, please contact the Concord Transportation Department at 574-875-6577. Due to call volume, you may need to leave a voicemail containing your child’s name, grade, school, and a phone number where we can reach you later. 

  3. If you are unable to download the app, please call 574-875-6577 the Concord Transportation Department for assistance. 

As always, we remain focused on safely transporting your child to and from school each day and providing timely communication. Thank you for your partnership and support!
