Transportation and Bus Service

Saint John’s offers the following services to assist families with regard to transportation to and from school:

Cars and Carpools

Most students come to Saint John’s by car. Saint John’s provides a phone and address listing of families in the school community through the annual “Redbook,” given to families at the begining of the year. This book can be an invaluable resource for carpooling.

Saint John’s opens its campus at 6:45 a.m., and remains open until 5:30 p.m. Students are encouraged to come early and stay late, if it makes transportation more convenient.

Bus for Shrewsbury Residents

Residents of Shrewsbury can receive bus service for a fee through the Shrewsbury School Department. For more information, visit their website.

Bus for Residents of Other Towns

Saint John’s contracts with AA Transportation of Shrewsbury, which has provided safe transportation for our athletes and extra-curricular activities for many years, to run a fee-based bus service for residents of certain Central Massachusetts and MetroWest communities.  Routes for the following year are set every spring.  Bus routes only run if enough families sign up to bear the cost of the route.  Listed below are the propsed routes which run AM only.
