Bus info coming soon!

🚍 Transportation Update from Our New Transportation Director, Marcus Teachout

Hello, Hurricane families!

I'm excited to join Houston Public Schools as your new Transportation Director and am looking forward to a great school year! We're busy finalizing bus routes, securing new drivers, and making sure everything is ready for the first day of school. Today, I'll also be driving the routes with Roy Loken to become familiar with our community and our students' routes.

🚌 Van Riders: If your student rides a van, you've likely already heard from your van driver.

📞 Bus Riders: Watch for a personal phone call from your bus driver or me within the next week with your student's pickup and drop-off times.

Thank you for your patience as we prepare for a safe and successful start to the school year. I look forward to meeting many of you and becoming part of the Hurricane community.

Go Canes!

The city’s water system will be shut down between 8:00pm Wednesday through 4:00am Thursday to perform some emergency pipe repairs within Grant Street. During this time, there will be no water service. When the system is repressurized, please take some time to run a few faucets to flush out your service line before turning on any cloths washers.

Following the shut-down, the city will be under a “boil order” until Friday. During the boil order, you may use water for cleaning, toilets, etc.; however, you should not consume any water directly from the faucet unless it is first boiled. You may also secure an alternate water source, such as bottled water, during this time. The boil order is put in place as a precautionary measure after the water system loses pressure and it will remain in affect until we receive tests which indicate the water is save for consumption.

Call city hall at 507-896-4033 with any questions. Please continue to monitor the city’s page for important updates. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding.
