School Bus Info

Seoul Foreign School owns and operates a fleet of 20 full sized buses, with 19 bus routes that bring over 1,000 students to the school each day from within the greater Seoul area. Our bus routes are designed to serve as many of our students as possible, while keeping the routes as close to a one hour maximum as possible. Unlike other foreign capitals, foreign residents in Seoul are not concentrated in one general area of the city, but live in many different areas. This fact and Seoul traffic patterns make routing our busses particularly difficult.

Each bus is equipped with a cellular phone and the driver can contact our Transportation Chief or an administrator for instructions and guidance at any time while en-route. To assist the bus driver, each bus has a safety monitor assigned. Other international schools operate their buses without a safety monitor; however, we feel that the presence of a safety monitor is an important safety enhancement for our bus riders. Our safety monitors are very conscientious and work very hard to assure the safe operation of their bus; moreover, we work with them throughout the year on the best ways to perform their duties and proper ways to relate to their student passengers. All safety monitors speak at least minimal English.

Listings of the bus routes and timings for early and late bus schedule are available on Edline.
