Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much.

TRANSPORTATION

Our commitment to student safety extends beyond our school doors.

The BDS Fleet

Along with our innovative and individualized education programs and therapeutic interventions, Beacon Day School offers our students transportation services to and from campus. Additionally, students attending Community Based Instruction (CBI) will also be transported in a Beacon Day School vehicle.

Transporting our students to and from school and during our CBI outings is something we do with great care: we know we're carrying precious cargo. Our drivers are trained extensively in student routes and safe driving protocols, and accompanying BIs provide our passengers with 1:1 individualized assistance so our drivers can concentrate on the road and ensure a safe, smooth ride for all. Our commitment to our students’ safety extends beyond our school doors; making sure our passengers–-your children–-arrive safe and sound wherever we are taking them is of paramount importance.
