Transportation

FCPS provides limited bus transportation between our students' base high schools for all students who attend Edison Academy from schools other than Edison High School. We also offer vehicle parking available for those who wish to drive to and from their Academy classes for these students from other high schools. 

All students must complete a transportation agreement form that is kept on file in the Academy office. This form indicates the student's transportation plan for the school year. Forms have been sent to students in their welcome email from their Academy teacher (beginning of school year). All forms are returned to the teacher. 

Student Drivers/Parking

Students from other high schools who attend Edison Academy classes, who wish to drive to and from the Academy for their classes, must complete a transportation agreement form and return them to their teacher, then a parking pass will be issued to the student for display when parking in the Academy parking lot.

• Students who have a base school parking pass will be issued a sticker to add to their base school pass at no cost. 
• Students who do not have a base school parking pass must complete the application for an Academy parking pass and pay a $67 yearly parking fee (current rate for 2024-25 school year).

Shuttle Bus Transportation

The school system uses a formula to determine if bus transportation will be provided between base schools and the Academy.  The number of students traveling at the same time, from the same school, must meet a threshold for shuttle transportation to be provided. Other considerations that influence shuttle availability are distance, time of day, and traffic. Information about shuttle buses, that are to be provided in any given school year, should be distributed and shared with students through their base high school.
