The Henderson ISD Transportation Department is dedicated to providing safe transportation to all students. Each day, drivers traverse 28 regular bus routes, 3 special education bus routes, and 2 special education automobile routes to transport 1332 students a total of 2043 miles. The trips to and from school often set the stage for the students’ day, so we take our responsibility to maintain excellence in all aspects of the education process quite seriously.

State law requires that transportation be provided for students living two or more miles from their designated campus. This service is provided at no cost to students. Bus routes and any subsequent changes are available at the schools. Further information may be obtained by calling the transportation department at 903-655-0502.
