Hard Surface Routes
Throughout the winter and spring months there will be occasions that secondary road conditions will require the school to use Hard Surface Routes only. Families will be provided with a hard surface route sheet and in the event that road conditions would require Lone Tree Schools to run hard surface routes only you may reference this sheet for pickup and drop off times and locations.
Questions regarding hard surface routes should be directed to your bus driver.
