Nā Lula Kaʻa ʻŌhua
Bus Schedule and Rules
Ka ʻUmeke Kāʻeo is happy to announce that we will once again be offering kaʻaʻōhua (bus) service in the mornings and afternoons. You can find the registration form for our Kaʻaʻōhua here. If you would like to have your keiki catch the bus, be sure to fill out the registration form.
We are offering two pick-up locations and three drop-off at two locations, Shipman Park in Kea‘au, Pana‘ewa Park, and drop-off at Kawānanakoa Gym. It is important that you be at the designated bus stop on time for your pick up.
If your keiki are not at the designated bus stop on time, the bus will leave and you will have to bring your keiki to school. If you or an authorized person is not at the bus stop to pick up your child, he/she will return to the Hale Lamalama Campus and you will need to pick them up from there.

Bus Rules & Expectations
To ensure the safety and well-being of all keiki, families, and staff, the following rules apply at all times while riding the bus.
About Bus Service
Bus service is provided by Ka ʻUmeke Kāʻeo, not the Department of Education. This is a costly service offered as a kōkua to our ʻohana. While we do our best to maintain consistent service, unforeseen circumstances may occasionally prevent buses from running. We appreciate your understanding and patience should these situations arise as we work to keep students safe and on schedule.
