Transportation - Busing

Riding the Bus

Ottawa Christian School anticipates having two bus routes to bring students to the school. One route originates in central/south Ottawa, heads west, then south to Barrhaven. The second route starts in Stittsville, passes through Kanata, then on to Barrhaven. Both routes pick up students from Redeemer Christian High School and busing continues to the RCHS after dropping off at OCS.  Returning, the Redeemer students are picked up first, then the OCS students are brought home.

If you are interested in signing up for the bus, please fill in the Bus Registration Form.  If you have any questions, please contact the Transportation Committee at transportation@ocschool.org

You can find the Bus Registration Form here.

BUS CANCELLATIONS:  The Transportation Committee would like to remind parents of the following procedures regarding bus cancellations.

  1. On days where weather conditions are poor, listen to CHRI, 93.9 FM or other local radio stations. Can? cellations are announced frequently starting around 6:00 a.m.
  2. IF the Catholic School Board has announced there are no buses running, our bus carrier (Rideau Bus Lines) will also be cancelled.
  3. You may also visit the following site: www.ottawaschoolbus.ca where there will be can? cellation notices in the left hand column.
  4. If OCS remains open when the buses are cancelled ? REMEMBER TO CALL THE SCHOOL OFFICE and notify them your child(ren) will not be coming to school. This will ensure every student is accounted for.

Thanks, OCS Transportation Committee
