For Royal Oak Schools parents, getting a child to school shouldn’t cause a headache. 

While Royal Oak Schools does not offer busing to schools, there are still transportation options available for students. Understanding which local transit option to use helps your child start off on the right foot.

Royal Oak Schools stopped offering school bus transportation to students in 2010 as a cost saving measure. Now, the district recommends using regional transit via SMART buses. 

With this guide, we’ll help make the process earlier with quick steps to identify regional bus transportation for your Royal Oak Schools student. 

The city of Royal Oak is served by Royal Oak Neighborhood Schools. There are also parochial school options for students in grades K-12.

Royal Oak Schools keep parents informed of SMART bus routes and stops via the district website.
