Transportation

Eligible students can ride to Cole Arts & Science Academy on the Success Express. Success Express features a fleet of DPS buses that circulate through the Far Northeast and Near Northeast neighborhoods and offer students three opportunities to catch a ride.

The shuttle runs from 6:30 to 9:30 a.m., and then from 2:30 to 6:30 p.m., facilitating more flexible school days and on-time access for students to their participating school of choice. Students can get on or off any bus at any stop, and in many cases can simply wait for the next bus to arrive within 15 minutes if they miss the first one.

Every bus has two adults on board – the driver and a paraprofessional, whose primary job will be to make sure students are getting on and off at the right spot, and doing so safely. ID tags worn by participating students indicate what school they are attending.
