Greetings Navarro ISD Families,

As the summer days heat up, our team of administrators and staff are preparing for the new school year. This is a time of great anticipation and excitement and we eagerly look forward to welcoming our students, families, faculty, and staff back to school.

Whether this is your child’s first year in our school district or their last before graduation, I am confident that this year will bring the promise of friendships, educational opportunities, and amazing experiences developed to help them learn, grow, and showcase their talents and skills. Each student deserves a champion to support them and our teachers and administrators are preparing this summer to inspire our students in lessons and activities that provide them with the foundation needed for future success.

The partnership we share with our families and the community is integral to the quality education provided to our students. I extend my best wishes for a great school year and thank you for your continued support. We look forward to continuing our quest to provide your child with everything they need to find meaningful connections, develop skills, and confidently succeed in obtaining their goals. We look forward to positive experiences that live on as cherished memories of your child's years in Navarro ISD. Please contact us if we can assist as you prepare for the new school year.

Memories are made here and we are excited about the memories we will make together in 2023-2024!

Sincerely,

Mandy D. Epley

Superintendent, Navarro ISD

Safety

The safety record of buses and drivers is outstanding in the Navarro School District. The school bus drivers undergo an extensive training program prior to getting behind the wheel of a school bus and refresher training every year. This training helps to ensure that riding a school bus is the safest way to get to school.

How to Register For Transportation Services

Navarro ISD uses the Travel Tracker Routing Parent Portal and the BusQuest App for student transportation information. You must register your child for transportation services directly through the Travel Tracker Routing Parent Portal. If you do not have a Travel Tracker Routing Parent Portal account, you will have the option to create one on the login page. Once you have completed setting up your Travel Tracker Routing Parent Portal account, you will be able to register your child(ren) for transportation services.

Please click the button below to register your child for transportation services.

If you have questions or concerns about the Transportation, please call 830-401-5575 and someone will be glad to help and answer questions.

Please be prepared for beginning of the year route changes and longer route times. It is very common the first few days/weeks of school for routes to take a little longer, and for students to be shifted to different routes to help alleviate long routes and crowded buses. We appreciate everyone's patience as we work through this process to try and provide the best options for everyone riding the busses.

We now offer training for CDL for those that would like to apply to become a bus driver. Navarro ISD Bus Driver's are paid $19.00 an hour (more $$$ with more experience).
