School bus at Turrill

Lightning Families --

As we prepare for the exciting start of the 2025–26 school year, we want to share some important updates regarding bussing and transportation.

🚸 New Grade Configurations Across the District This year brings several changes to our school structure:

  • Elementary Schools: Now serving Kindergarten through 4th grade

  • Rolland-Warner Campus: Home to 5th and 6th grades

  • Zemmer Campus: Serving 7th and 8th grades

  • Lapeer High School & CFI: Hosting 9th through 12th grades

🚌 Bus Route Adjustments With these changes, bus routes have been updated. You’ll receive your student’s specific transportation details within the transportation packet mailing. Please read all documents carefully. 

⏰ Expect Delays During the First Weeks Please anticipate some delays during the first 1–2 weeks of school as our drivers adjust to the new routes.

  • Students will not be marked tardy if they arrive late due to transportation delays.

  • Arrival and departure times may be later than usual during this adjustment period.

📞 Questions? We're Here to Help If you have any questions, feel free to contact the LCS Bus Garage at (810) 667-2433.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate these changes. We’re excited to welcome our students back and look forward to a great year ahead!

Warm regards, 

Linda Thompson
LCS Transportation Director
