Transportation Application and Payment Instructions

  • Students must register directly with Black Gold School Division’s Transportation Department.
  • Registration is required every school year.
  • A separate form must be submitted for each student who requires busing.
  • Transportation is only available for students within the Calmar attendance boundary.
  • Fees are paid directly to New Humble Community School, unless you also have a child attending a Black Gold School Division school. In that case, you may be able to pay through PowerSchool, but only if you qualify for the family rate (three or more children) and at least one child is registered at a Black Gold school.
  • Students who live in the Calmar boundary and ride a Black Gold bus are considered Eligible Students
