Transportation

Each academy will distribute its own bus and lunch tickets.

  1. High school students living more than one and a half miles from school are eligible to receive free MTA transportation. Pupils living within a mile and a half from school may get MTA identification cards for riding buses to school and home at a reduced rate.

  2. Excessive absences may lead to the following:

    1. Tickets will be issued TWO (2) at a time

    2. You may lose free tickets entirely

  3. Bus tickets, which are lost or stolen, cannot be replaced. We suggest that you keep the book of tickets at home and take only two for each days use.

  4. Reduced fare identification cards may be replaced by the transportation office upon application and statement of loss. These cards are not replaced by Frederick Douglass High School.
