The St. Michael-Albertville School District is delighted to announce the continuation of the fee-based transportation option that began in the fall of 2017.  This service will be available to open enrolled students near the City of Albertville.

The annual cost for one student is $350 with an annual family cap of $550.  Please pay the full amount by May 31st.  Please complete the Open Enrollment Transportation Registration Form and mail or return it to the STMA District Office located at 11343 50th St. NE, Albertville, MN 55301.  Please make the check payable to ISD 885.  The district is now accepting electronic payments using FeePay accessed through the ParentVUE portal.

The district along with Don’s Bus has determined tentative bus stops based on the home addresses of the students. These bus stops are subject to change as actual ridership is determined and varies from year-to-year. Please view the boundary maps and maps with tentative bus stop locations. Please keep in mind that kindergarten students will ride either a Fieldstone or Big Woods route. When they arrive at either Big Woods or Fieldstone Elementary, they will transfer to a bus that will take them to the Albertville Primary. All St. Michael Catholic School students will ride either a Fieldstone or Big Woods route. All high school students will ride the same routes as Middle School West students.

STMA bus stops are typically placed at intersections based on your home address, student density, walk distances to the stop, safety and the timing of the route. No student will walk more than .25 of a mile to a bus stop. Buses will not cross the assigned boundaries to transport students or enter cul de sacs. Students will board the bus at an assigned stop for their assigned school. Families need to establish one pick up and one drop off address for their child(ren). This is the same policy for both resident and open-enrolled families.

If you are ready to register for this service, please print and complete the Open Enrollment Transportation Registration Form. 

If you have any questions please email transportation@stma.k12.mn.us or call 763-497-3180. Thank you for choosing STMA Schools and for your continued support of our students and the district. We look forward to partnering with you in the education of your child(ren) and continuing our tradition of excellence.
