Out-of-district students are picked up and dropped off at designated stops. This applies to students attending Bristol Technical Education Center, H.C. Wilcox Technical High School, Maloney Magnet Elementary School, Rotella Interdistrict Magnet School, Southington High School, W.F Kaynor Technical High School and Waterbury Arts Magnet School. You can find the bus routes here.

Elementary Schools – A parent/guardian or authorized adult must be present for drop off after school at each student’s designated bus stop. Students whose parents are not present will be brought to the Wolcott police station. Parents will then be responsible for picking up their children at the Wolcott Police Department at 225 Nichols Road.

The safety of students is the priority for All-Star Transportation, from the time they are picked up to the time they are dropped off. Our requirement that parents be present at the bus stop for pre-K, first- and second-grade pick-ups and drop offs is a reflection of our concern for safety.

Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, First & Second Grade

If parent is not at designated bus stop during a drop-off after school, the bus driver will return the student back to school. Parents will then be responsible for picking up their children at their assigned school.

Third-Fifth Grade

For students in grades 3-5, a parent does not need to be present for drop-off.

Here are some safety tips for parents to keep in mind.

In the event a change to a pick-up and drop-off schedule is needed during the school year, parents need to complete a waiver form and submit it to their student’s school office to request a change.

If you have any questions, please contact All-Star Transportation’s Wolcott office at 203-879-1334 or email [email protected].
