Walton County School District

Transportation Department

Walton County is located in the Florida Panhandle and is among the largest geographic counties in the state of Florida extending from the Alabama state line to the scenic Emerald Coast along the Gulf of Mexico.

The Walton County School District Transportation Department’s main objective is to transport students to and from school in a safe and timely manner every day. The Walton County School District provides transportation to area schools according to “Transportation Routes.”

In addition to transporting students, the Transportation Department also:

  • Provides transportation for extra-curricular activities
  • Performs inspections on all buses to ensure safety
  • Trains prospective bus drivers in commercial driver training programs
  • Maintain all district vehicles to ensure safety
  • Issues vehicle numbers.

How do I register my child for the bus?

Students register to ride the school bus during school registration.  Each school will have the appropriate information for buses serving that school. 

Please ensure the school your child attends has the correct address and is in FOCUS as “Has Requested to ride a District Bus” so a bus assignment can be made.
