About Transportation

Message from the Director of Transportation

Transportation will continue for the students who attend Oceanside High School and Jefferson Middle School and reside aboard Camp Pendleton for the same fee as last year. Additionally, due to the renovation of Palmquist and Mission Elementary Schools, and the one-year relocation of those schools, all students who attend Palmquist and Mission Elementary Schools and reside outside one mile of there temporary school  may choose to receive free transportation during the re-construction process.

Our dedicated staff of transportation professionals, including drivers, attendants, mechanics, dispatchers, instructors and administrative support personnel will continue to keep the Oceanside Unified School District Transportation Department one of the safest public school transportation departments in the state.

It is the mission of the transportation department to safely deliver all students each day, no matter their destination.  In order to continually improve our service, please do not hesitate to contact us with any comments, concerns or suggestions.  OUSD Transportation can be reached at 760-966-4445 .  On behalf of the entire transportation department, I would like to say what a pleasure it is to serve your student this year.

Sincerely,

Dennis Smarsty
