First Ride Program

First Ride Program: Event Information (Free Program)

The First Ride Program is a collaborative effort between First Student, GP Catholic, and GP Public Schools. It serves as an awareness and safety initiative for parents and students who are utilizing the yellow school bus system for the first time. We welcome students from all grade levels to participate in this program.

During the event, parents and children will have the opportunity to engage in a school bus safety PowerPoint presentation, followed by a question and answer session. To conclude the program, parents and children will enjoy a short school bus ride, providing them with firsthand experience.

The next First Ride Program will be Wednesday, August 21, 2024, from 6 pm to 7 pm in the gym at

École Catholique Louis Riel  

6201 Tamarack Dr, Grande Prairie, AB
