Closing Day

School Scheduled Leave Travel

Transportation will be provided free of charge, for the following locations and times if a request is entered by the Sunday prior to the break.

Please note: For travel outside of this timing, please see our list of external providers for other travel options.

* Brentwood College School provides the outbound walk-on ferry tickets for school approved sailing times (added as a $25 student charge).

Late Departure Requests

Students needing to stay past Closing Day (due to lack of flight availability) should seek house parent approval to stay, and a MySchool request will be entered on their behalf. Please look for confirmation from the transportation department that transportation is available. Approval for staying on campus, does not guarantee Brentwood transportation availability, families may need to make their own arrangements, using an external provider.

Once a Request Has Been Submitted

During the week of travel, bus leave times will be posted in the student houses. It is important this information be checked well in advance of the travel day and that the pick up location be noted. Closing Day departures are always from the Foote bus loop. 

On Closing Day

Students should make sure they have all their luggage and required travel documentation, the night before travel. Students must be at their pick up point by the bus loading time. The bus will not wait for late passengers.

Campus staff work closely with the transportation team to ensure the safe departure of students from campus. Should students make alternate arrangements for travel, it is helpful to notify the houseparent as soon as possible so that transportation can be notified. No-shows can slow down the departure of buses, which has a knock on effect for the rest of the student body.
