Parochial Transportation for Non-Lebanon Days
There are 7 days during the 25/26 School year that Lebanon has PD Days or Staff Work Days, so our regular routes will not run. These days include the following:
- September 26, 2025
- October 17 & 20, 2025
- January 5, 2026
- February 13, 2026
- March 13 & 16, 2026
There are also several Parochial Schools that start before Lebanon's start date of August 20, 2025.
If your student will need transportation on any of these days, or before Lebanon starts; please complete the Non Lebanon Day Opt-In Form. Only students that opt-in for transportation on this form will be routed for those days. Please be aware that pick up and drop off times WILL be different than normal days. We will share these times with your school building. Please contact your school, as the MY Ride K-12 App will not reflect the alternate times.
Transportation Request/Payment in-lieu-of Form
By completing this form, you are requesting transportation and accepting or rejecting payment in-lieu-of transportation for the 25/26 school year. This form must be completed by 7/1/25 in order to receive payment in-lieu-of for the 25/26 school year. Once the school year ends, verification of enrollment and residency will occur and then payment will be mailed in the month of July 2026. Requests made after 7/1/25 may result in a pro-rated payment based on the date of the request.
A parent/guardian has the right to accept or reject the offer of payment in lieu of transportation. If you reject the offer, you have the right to request mediation through the Ohio Department of Education. You also have the right to designate the nonpublic/community school to represent you in mediation and other proceedings.
