Good afternoon,
Please log into your child's Genesis account and then look under the "Bus" tab to see if he/she is scheduled to be on a bus route this coming school year. If you see a route number, then follow the below steps to find the route specifics.
Go to http://www.clarkschools.org.
Select the "More" tab toward the top right of the page.
Select the "Departments" sub-tab toward the top of that list.
Select the "Business Office" sub-tab at the top of that list.
Click on the "2024-2025 Route Summaries" link toward the bottom left of that page.
A link to that document is also included below for your convenience.
If you do not see a route number within Genesis, then your child will not be receiving transportation through the school this year (with the exception of Union County Vocational-Technical Schools (UCVTS) students who are eligible for transportation between ALJ and UCVTS despite not having a route number in Genesis).
Below is a link to a document that explains how this UCVTS busing is impacted in inclement weather. This document can also be found on the Business Office page from above.
Please email Mrs. Christine Unish at cunish@clarkschools.org with any questions.
As always, thank you. Enjoy the long weekend ahead.

Good afternoon,
As we ready ourselves to step forward into a new school year, let us take time to reflect on some of our accomplishments from this past year upon which we will build. The first edition of our rebranded district newsletter, Clark Campus Chronicles (attached below), will assist us with doing so. A special thank you goes to Mrs. Elizabeth Clee, our District Publicist, for preparing this newsletter.
As always, many thanks for your partnership with our schools and support of our students and staff. We could not do what we set out to do without you. Enjoy this final stretch of the summer break, and rest up for the great things that lie ahead.
