• Big Spring School District will provide transportation services for resident students in grades K-12 to/from Pennsylvania Department of Education accredited non-public schools located within ten miles of our District.

    We currently provide transportation to the following non-public schools: Carlisle Christian Academy, Christian School of Grace Baptist, St. Patrick School, Logos School, and Mowersville Christian Academy.

    Please note that all non-public students will be transported to/from school with Big Spring School District students on our secondary routes. Students will transfer to a non-public transfer bus at the Big Spring High School taking them to their non-public school. They will do the reverse in the afternoon.

    On days when Big Spring School District is not in session, but the non-public school is in session, we will offer transportation to/from Big Spring High School to the non-public schools with parent transport to the High School. The transfer bus will depart Big Spring High School at 7:20 am.

    On days when non-public schools have pre-planned early dismissals, Big Spring School District will not provide transportation at the early dismissal time. This does not include weather-related dismissals.

    Transportation request forms are required each school year and should be submitted by August 1 of the school year. Parents/guardians will be responsible for transportation to and from the non-public school until the transportation has been confirmed. The form is available below.
