MASKS:
The Ohio Department of Health is strongly recommending that staff and students who are not vaccinated wear a mask while indoors at school. We believe that parents should make the decision whether or not their children will wear a mask in school. We welcome the wearing of masks, but will not require that they be worn while in our schools.
However, anyone who is using school transportation must wear a mask, based on the CDC requirement to do so. Students should have a mask with them when they get onto the school bus.

The District offers “Centralized Registration.” On-Line Registration Forms are available at https://newphiladelphia.esvportal.com/

BUS ROUTES:
Letters will be sent home with transportation information to all parents on or before August 6th, 2021. If you have not received notification by August 16th, please contact the Transportation Office at 330-364-0622.
To make arrangements for transportation for your child, an online registration form is available HERE, or on the district website, www.npschools.org
Bus students are transported from one pick-up location and returned to one drop-off location. Transportation is provided for students K-12 living one mile from their school of attendance. A consistent schedule for the year must be arranged with the Transportation Office. When a student needs alternative transportation arrangements, the parent or legal guardian is responsible for transportation. If anyone other than the parent/guardian is to pick up or drop off your elementary school-age child, a written note must be sent to the building principal.
ELEMENTARY TRANSFER BUS INFORMATION:
If your child will be riding a shuttle bus (attending a school that is not their home school) your child will need to be at their home school by 8:30 am and will return to the home school by 3:30 pm for pickup. Once at the home school, a staff member will ensure students are on the correct bus.
