    We may offer a limited number of transportation services to our students based upon need, location and sufficient demand.* Parents are responsible for coordinating transportation for their child.
     
    Fees for this service are based on the miles between the student’s home and Gilmour Academy at the IRS reimbursable mileage rate, currently $0.655 per mile.
     
    Transportation fees will be billed in early September, either in full or added to a monthly payment plan.
     
    Parents can request transportation when they complete school forms online in the spring.
