Transportation

The Goshen Local School District and Petermann are committed to providing students a safe ride to and from school. Transportation is provided for all Goshen students including alternative transportation to Live Oaks as well as several parochial and private schools in the area.

Your student's bus route

The new Bus Route E-Link contains information about your student’s bus number and pick up and drop off times.

As of July 2024, bus routes are currently being created. Bus route information will not be accurate until parents have updated Final Forms information.

Bus Route E-link will not be active until Aug. 5, 2024. View log-in information below.

Bus Route information will then appear on the screen. If your students pick up and/or drop off  information is incorrect please contact transportation @ 513-722-2229. If you have moved and need to update your home address please update your Final Forms information and contact the bus garage directly. 

A student's bus stop is usually at a nearby crossing street or corner although some rural roads in the district require door-to door service.

For safety reasons, buses do not enter cul-de-sacs or dead-end streets except for students with special needs as required by state law or special circumstances that may need Board approval. Students may have to walk up to half a mile to their bus stop.

As always we reserve the right to adjust routes throughout the year.

For specific questions regarding transportation, contact Director of Transportation Dan Harmon at (513) 722-2229.

Shared Parenting Transportation Form

In order to design our routes we need families with shared parenting that results in a need for alternate transportation to fill out the attached form. Once the form is completed the transportation department will review route changes and communicate the necessary details. Custody paperwork will be required for the shared parenting transportation to be approved.

Emergency Bus Pass

Students are able to request a temporary bus pass for special/emergency situations. To obtain a temporary bus pass, parents must complete an emergency form 24 hours in advance explaining the reason. If approved and space is available, the student will be given a temporary bus pass that will allow them to board the receiving bus. No Pass/No Ride. This is for student safety and will allow us to practice consistent safety regulations
