The Division of Student Transportation provides safe, reliable, and efficient transportation services that positively support learning opportunities for eligible students from the District of Columbia. The division’s work is designed to achieve four main objectives: Safety, Efficiency, Reliability, and Customer Focus.

The Parent Resource Center communicates with families of students with disabilities receiving transportation services in the District of Columbia and nonpublic placements.

For immediate assistance related to student transportation services, call the Parent Resource Center at (202) 576-5000 Monday-Friday from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. Families can also view Daily DOT Updates, find reimbursement information or visit our FAQs to learn more about student transportation services. To ensure we are meeting parents and families’ needs, please fill out and participate in OSSE DOT’s Customer Satisfaction Survey.
