Bus Service

St. Mary's bus service is operated by the St. William's Catholic School Education Fund (CSEF), in Round Rock. The purpose of our ministry is to support Catholic education and maintain and operate the school bus that transports our children back and forth to St. Mary's at a minimal cost to the family. CSEF operates a 2003, 66-passenger school bus in which bus drivers and monitors are paid parent volunteers (and grand-parents too!).

We respectfully request that students and parents arrive at least 5 minute prior to the departure and arrival times.
