The Little Rock School District announces the renewal of its long-standing partnership with Rock Region Metro, now entering its seventh year. This collaboration continues to provide LRSD students and staff with convenient and reliable transportation options across the city, contributing to the District's ongoing commitment to ensuring accessibility for all.
Since 2020, ridership among LRSD students and staff has consistently trended upward, with a 40% increase in usage during the 2023-2024 school year compared to the previous year.
The partnership covers all Rock Region Metro buses and the Metro Connect program, which operates similarly to popular rideshare services like Uber and Lyft.
To be eligible for these services, LRSD students and staff must have a special sticker on their district-issued ID or badge. Those needing a sticker can contact their school office or Stefanie Vestal at Stefanie.Vestal@lrsd.org.
The Little Rock School District is proud to continue this partnership with Rock Region Metro, as it plays a crucial role in enhancing the educational experience for students and the working environment for staff.
