Welcome to the AJUSD Transportation Department Website.

We believe that the yellow school bus plays an essential role in the safety, health, security and readiness of Apache Junction's schoolchildren. With that belief in mind we have placed a great deal of resources and training at the disposal of each of our drivers. Our drivers more than meet the state and federal minimum requirements to become certified school bus drivers. Their training is extensive and ongoing as your child's safety is our priority.

Student safety is our priority and we ask that you discuss with your student the importance of sitting properly, avoiding behavior that might distract the driver and to follow the drivers rules at all times.

We will do our absolute best to transport your child to and from school and school related activities in a safe and timely manner. If you have any questions or concerns about your students transportation, do not hesitate to call: 480-982-1110 ext 2202.
