Red Cedar Gets a Bus!

Late this winter, a dream came true for the school with our purchase of a school bus. We will now be able to get out into 'the field' much more easily. Whole classes can readily use the bus to go on all kinds of field trips, and make local communities and the natural world even more a part of the hands-on learning that students experience at Red Cedar.

We are also going to begin providing transportation for Chittenden County students at the beginning and end of the school day. We have a growing number of students coming from the north. Red Cedar's location on the northern end of Addison County makes it accessible to students who live in Chittenden County. The bus will soon begin daily runs to Williston with stops along the way in Monkton and Hinesburg. Families who live further north or east in Essex, Jericho, or Underhill will meet at the stop in Williston Center. Next year we plan to add a stop near the interstate by Tafts Corners for families in Burlington, Colchester and Essex.


Surely the most adorable bus in the world.

The bus arrives late on a snowy afternoon.
