If your address has not changed and your student will attend the same school, you do not need to call. The Transportation Office will be updating student assignments throughout the summer, including students moving to a new school, such as BJHS to EHS or WMS to BJHS.
Parents should call the Transportation Office if their student is new to the district or has had an address change so their route and file can be updated. Parents may also download the Smart Tag Parent App to view their student’s bus route and status.
Please note: Not all school changes and routes will be updated or available by July 6. Parents are welcome to call 870-864-5006 to check the status of their student’s route.

A special moment for our Washington Middle School teachers! ✨KTVE reporter Shawl Pryor, a graduate of the Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, recently visited with four of our educators who were selected to attend the prestigious Ron Clark Academy training.
Last year, Hannah McCorkle and Allison Applegate were chosen for this incredible opportunity, and this year, Alexandria Morrison and Willow Kumar followed in their footsteps.
Shawl sat down with all four teachers to hear firsthand about their experiences, the impact on their classrooms, and the inspiration they’ve brought back to our students.
We are so proud of these educators for representing ESD and continuing to grow in ways that benefit our students! 🍎👏
