Transportation
Transporting students from 25 area towns
As a convenience to parents, Falmouth Academy makes bus transportation available to off-Cape, mid-Cape, South Coast, and Vineyard students. The cost of transportation covers the full school year and is a charge incurred by the family. For this year’s fees associated with transportation, please visit the Tuition and Affordability page.
Bus transportation aligns with the school program, leaving Falmouth Academy at 4:40 p.m. Monday through Thursday and at 2:45 p.m. on Friday. These times enable students to participate in sports or partake in other after-school programs.
The routes are determined by the needs of the students and may be modified as needed.

Transportation Communication
The REMIND App enables Falmouth Academy to quickly notify parents via automated text messages in the event of an unexpected late bus or any change in bus details. A text message from Falmouth Academy, adding you to the group Bus Notifications, will be forthcoming this week. If you need assistance with the REMIND app, please contact Amy Cummings, acummings@falmouthacademy.org.
"Over my many years commuting on the boat to the university where I worked, I was continually impressed by the Vineyard kids on their way to and from Falmouth Academy. Their dedication to their studies was obvious ..."
"...More importantly, though, I was taken aback by how well they watched out and cared for each other. I wanted my son to experience this wonderful sense of community and belonging. We haven’t been disappointed" —Tom Hallahan, Oak Bluffs
