Dear Parents,

As you know, the ESF Parents' Association is currently offering several bus lines - 4 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon - to and from the European School Frankfurt. As of now close to 100 children are signed up.

The PA has recently run a survey amongst parents and in general the response was very positive, in some cases even enthusiastic. To quote one parent: "Super reliable, comfortable (i.e. always warm and the seats are great), the bus drivers are always friendly. We really like this service a lot!". Also the school direction confirms, children arriving by bus are much more relaxed than many of those driven by their parents. And those of you who experience the daily mess on the ESF parking lot know that you would rather be somewhere else.

As we are still in a trial phase we have to evaluate if and how to continue this  bus service in the future, given the financial implication. We are finding that we are  currently running at a loss on a number of lines, which we will not be able to support in the future unless more seats are taken up. Also as a Charity organisation we are not allowed to continue running at a loss under German tax laws.

So, please:

- If you are interested, sign up for this great service. You will do your children a favor.

- If you are already enrolled, advertise! Get your fellow parents to participate, so that you and they continue to benefit.

Details of the bus lines / routes as well as general information on school transport can be found on this website in the "Transport" section.

Thank you all for your cooperation

The ESF Parents' Association
