2011-2012 Transportation

2011-2012 Bus Routes

Changes to Drop-Off & Pick-up Procedures

Bus Riders

The Cobb County School System provides arterial transportation to and from Wheeler High School for out-of-district magnet students.

  • These routes are determined each year after incoming students have been selected.
  • Stops are arterial and cannot be altered, i.e., subdivision stops, home stops, etc.

As long as students are actively enrolled in the program they are eligible to use the transportation.

Local regular bus transportation routes are available for those within the Wheeler district.

Below are several guidelines related to the transportation and the out-of-district routes.

  • Students may be picked up or dropped off at any of the scheduled stops with prior permission.
  • Students may ride different buses to and from school provided they have made prior arrangements.
  • Students may ride other in-district and out-of-district buses with other students provided prior permission has been obtained.
  • Permission is granted on a daily basis with a note from a parent and turned into Geri Gagat in the Wheeler Attendance office.
  • Times are approximate depending on conditions and may be adjusted later.

Traveling to and from school by Car

Due to the reconstruction and the changing of the traffic pattern on campus for the next 3-4 years, the following must take place to ensure a safe, orderly and efficient method of getting students on and off campus:

  • ALL traffic will enter the South Entrance (next to the Horticulture and the Magnet Building). All traffic on this road will be ONE-WAY & will exit the campus on the NORTH Exit (by the Auditorium)

  • There will be NO turn around in the Church parking area, nor will this area be a drop-off. No one except staff with decals will be allowed to park next to the Old Church Bldg.

  • Drop-off/Pick-up

    AM - Vehicles without a WHS parking decal will not be allowed to turn off of Holt Road and enter the South Entrance between 8:00 - 8:45 am. Buses will be arriving to drop students off and the road cannot be blocked by drop-offs.

    - Drop-offs before 8:00 am will be allowed.There is a designated area in the back parking lot for drop-off in the morning, if you arrive before 8:00 am

    PM – Pick- ups after school will occur after the buses leave at 3:45pm. No one will be allowed to park along the South Entrance between 2:30 pm and 3:45 pm

  • There are portables in the magnet parking area so there will be no parking or drop-off in this area.

  • Parents and Volunteers must park across the street at East Cobb Middle School during the school day
