    Kindergarten Alternative Release Authorization Form

  • Please Read Before Submitting: 

    Parents and caregivers of Kindergarten (KG) students eligible for transportation should use this form to authorize up to two alternative individuals to receive their child from the bus in their absence. If your kindergarten child does not meet the eligibility requirements, please do not complete this form. If you are unsure, please visit the OSTA website and use the “Do I Qualify?”
    tool.

    Please note that this form is not intended for students in specialized classes or those with special needs.

    Please submit a separate form for each kindergarten child. If the alternate person(s) change, please resubmit the form with the new details.

    If parents or caregivers live in the same household, please list everyone in Section 1 (Parent/Caregiver Information).

    If parents or caregivers live at different addresses, each parent/caregiver must submit a separate form using only their own contact information in Section 1 and listing their own authorized individuals in Section 2 for when the child is in their care. Section 2 is strictly reserved for alternative release individuals (e.g., grandparents, trusted neighbours, daycares, siblings).

     

    CRITICAL NOTE FOR PARENTS: 

    This form is strictly for the purpose of releasing a Kindergarten student from a school-purpose vehicle. Submitting this form does not change or update your child's official Emergency Contact Form on file at the school office. Those are separate files managed entirely by the school administration. If you need to update your child's general school emergency contacts, you must contact the school principal or office staff directly.


    The physical Yellow KG Tag is distributed to students by their school. Once you receive your child's tag, please ensure it is securely attached to their backpack. Should your child change backpacks during the school year, please remember to transfer the tag to the new bag.
