Transportation - Busing Information

The Dairyland Group provides transportation services for Muskego-Norway Schools. If you are looking to enroll your child(ren) in bus services, or if you are looking to modify your current service, please complete the Bus Form as soon as possible. Please note, if your child(ren) already had transportation services last year and nothing has changed, you do not need to fill out the bus form. Your child(ren) will be automatically enrolled for the upcoming year. Questions or concerns related to a student bus route can be directed to Dairyland by calling 262-203-9938 or emailing muskegoquestions@ridesta.com. If you have general district transportation questions, please contact Jamie Gleeson, Accounting Specialist, at 262-971-1800 x2111.

Important Bus Routing Information

As of today, you are able to see routing information uploaded into Infinite Campus. It is important to note that as families make changes to their transportation requests, the posted information is subject to change. Please review your child(ren)’s routing information after August 19th to verify accuracy. If you are an active subscriber to the Stopfinder App, you are also able to see your child(ren)’s routing information there. If you have not used Stopfinder in the past, an invitation to join was sent on August 15th. If any routing changes need to be made, please reach out to Dairyland directly by calling 262-203-9938 or emailing at muskegoquestions@ridesta.com.

Stopfinder App

Stopfinder is the easy-to-use, all-in-one parent app designed by parents for parents. Stopfinder enables registered users (subscribers) to see their child(ren)’s bus schedules in real-time. The bus company, Dairyland, and registered users stay connected by sending and receiving messages through the secure Stopfinder app. Registered users are provided with the most accurate information about a child’s bus schedule directly to their phone. For helpful hints and tips for subscribers using the Stopfinder Parent app, please visit Stopfinders’ FAQ website.

Master Planning Update

Several elements of the 2022 facilities referendum were completed this summer. Notably, the North Gym, Dance Studio, band and choir rooms, and expanded parking at MHS will all be ready for students! We will begin the school year at MHS with 150 more parking stalls than at the end of the 2022-23 school year. The S.T.E.A.M. and Health Science additions, as well as the Lakeview Elementary gymnasium, will continue to be constructed throughout the 2023-24 school year.
