Bus Routes and Safety Information


The transportation department provides regular morning and afternoon bus stops for eligible students attending their home campus as determined by the established CFISD attendance boundaries. Students on a transfer are ineligible for transportation. Eligible addresses for transportation within your student’s attendance boundary are: 
  1. your home address, 
  2. state-recognized daycare provider or 
  3. your student’s grandparent address.

CFISD Police Department


CFISD employs 71 officers, including seven security officers, led by Chief of Police Alan Bragg as part of its independent police department. Here are a few things Chief Bragg wants you to remember:
  • Watch Your Speed Limit: CFPD officers are authorized to issue traffic citations. CFPD has traffic units that monitor speed in school zones using radar, on or off school property.
  • No Cell Phones In School Zones: As the school year begins, employees should remember that they cannot use cell phones in school zones—specifically during the times the reduced speed limit applies. A person who violates this law is subject to a $200 fine.
  • Watch for Student Walkers
  • Leave Early to Avoid Traffic Delays
