BUS ROUTES
TRANSPORTATION INFORMATION
Morning Drop Off: Students should be dropped off in the morning between 7:00 and 7:25am through the car rider line. Students are considered tardy if they arrive after 7:25am. Starting on Tuesday September 3rd, parents who arrive after 7:25am for drop off will need to park in the front office parking lot and walk students into the front office for Late Sign In. Parents will scan our QR code to fill out a short form with their students name and grade level. It important for you student to be on time each day as it sets them up for a successful day in school. As a reminder, students are not able to walk themselves into school after 7:25am and must be escorted in by a parent or guardian. Thank you for your support.
Backpack Tags: Please ensure that your students back pack has their transportation number on it each day when they go to school and when they get home. If your student is in need of a replacement backpack tag, please email Ms. Herrera at Adriana.Herrera@yesprep.org OR send a text message to 936-397-1449
Temporary Transportation Changes: Making sure your students get home safely each day is an important part of our jobs here at Hobby Elementary. We want to ensure all of our parents are equipped with the knowledge of how to update their students transportation for a temporary change. The form linked here: https://tinyurl.com/HBETransportation must be filled out and submitted before 12:00PM the day of the requested change. For example, your student is typically a bus rider, but you will be going through the car lane on Wednesday. So on Tuesday night OR Wednesday morning the parent is required to fill out the Temporary Transportation Change form letting us know. This way we can be sure to stage your student in the right area for dismissal.
As we begin the new school year at Yes Prep Hobby Elementary, we want to emphasize the importance of adhering to our traffic flow and following the guidance of our staff during pickup and dismissal times.
Why It Matters:

- Efficiency: Adhering to traffic guidelines helps streamline the pickup and dismissal process, making it quicker and more efficient for everyone. This means less waiting time and a smoother transition for students and parents alike.
- Respect for Others: Listening to our traffic leaders and following instructions shows respect for the efforts of our staff who are there to manage the flow and keep things running smoothly. It also ensures that all families have a positive experience during these critical times.
How you can help:
- Follow Posted Signs and Markings: Pay attention to traffic signs and lane markings to navigate the area safely.

Dear Parent/Guardian:
We would like to offer your student an opportunity to participate in the Houston Food Bank’s Backpack Buddy program. Here is how it works:
- There is no charge for the food sacks to you or to the student.
- Every Friday at the school your child attends, your child will receive a sack full of nutritious food for the weekend. The food sacks are distributed as discreetly as possible and contains enough food to serve one child per weekend.
- Texas Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) products comprise a significant percentage of the food sacks that are distributed to the Backpack Buddy participants.
- *Houston Food Bank staff will verify free and reduced lunch status of your student on Backpack Buddy Program during school visits.
The Houston Food Bank respects your information and wants to make sure it remains private. This survey will only be used to enroll children in the Backpack Buddy Program. Any data collected will not report individual-level information.
