Transportation

Students come to Holy Angels from all over the Metro area, so we're committed to offering transportation options that are safe, reliable, efficient, and affordable.

Bus Transportation: Safe, reliable, efficient, and affordable--those terms certainly define our school bus system! 

  • We own, operate, and maintain our own buses. (All of our buses are less than five years old and are outfitted with the best safety equipment.)
  • Our bus drivers average 8-10 years of bus-driving experience.
  • We serve 14 Metro area cities.
  • Students in our normal route areas are picked up and dropped off at the street corner that's safe and nearest their home.
  • Students living outside our normal bus routes can catch the bus at a central pick-up spot.
  • 97% of our students and parents gave the AHA Transportation Department a positive rating in the school’s last satisfaction rating.

Payment details:  Busing contracts are mailed to families the first week of June and are due back August 1. Payments are made in two installments, August 1 and September 1.

Students may try the bus for up to one week at the beginning of the school year. If they don't like the service for some reason, and if they are unable to work out another option with the Transportation Department, the family is eligible for full refund.

Additional transportation options: Usually AHA two-way bus transportation is the best option for new families, but we offer several transportation options.

One-way busing: Please note that AHA offers  one-way busing and fees!
     • One-way fee for $950 routes is $700
     • One-way fee for $1150 routes is $850

Riding the city bus: Holy Angels is on the MTC busline. We offer  10 rides on MTC buses for $13.50.

Carpools. Once your child is registered for classes, AHA will help you find contact information for other AHA families who live in your area. That way it’s easy to make some contacts to set up a carpool with other parents.   

Parking at AHA

AHA provides a limited amount of student parking on campus. Parking permits cost $110 each year and are awarded first to seniors and then to younger students on a lottery basis. Click here to see details about requesting an AHA parking permit.
