If you haven’t already completed registration for the 2024-2025 school year, please go to https://www.laschools.net/registration and complete this process as soon as possible. Middle and high school students who completed course selection are also required to complete registration, as this is a different process than course selection. We cannot issue a schedule or assign a student to a teacher unless you have completed registration. 

 

LAPS provides bus service for all Los Alamos County elementary students who live at least 1 mile from the school, for middle school students who live 1.5 miles from the school, and for high school students who live 2 miles from the school. 

 

Please complete the 2024-2025 Student Bus Card. 

 

When you have submitted the bus card(s) you will not receive a confirmation email. If you have any further questions or concerns, please email Keith Rosenbaum at k.rosenbaum@laschools.net.

 

The district does not provide transportation for students who live outside of Los Alamos County. A student will be placed on a waiting list when a parent or guardian completes the 2024-2025 Student Bus Card.

Parents of 3Y PRE K students should contact the Student Services Department at (505) 663-2208 to arrange for transportation.

Please complete the Special Education Bus Card if your student's IEP team has determined that your student is eligible for transportation as a related service.

Breakfast and Lunch

Los Alamos Public Schools (LAPS) is pleased to offer a free breakfast and lunch to all of our students. This year LAPS will be utilizing the Offer Versus Serve (OVS) model pertaining to USDA and NSLP requirements. This model will provide students with more of a choice for both breakfast and lunch service. 

Our food service provider will make substitutions for students with disabilities that restrict diet, on a case-by-case basis. These substitutions must be supported by a written statement from a licensed physician. If a student has a dietary need this must be communicated to the school site nurse. The school site will inform our food service partner so they can prepare the requested meal for the student. You can view menus online at https://laschools.nutrislice.com/menu. 

Even though all students can participate in the breakfast and lunch program we encourage all families to complete the free and reduced meal program application.  These applications are used for other important funding opportunities which support the district and our students. Also, students become eligible for reduced fees at school sites based on these applications. Please use the online option at www.schoolcafe.com.

If you are unable to complete the online option please download a copy of the  Free and Reduced Meal Program Application (en español). Instructions for this application can be found at USDA Application Instructions. Email the completed form to the Assistant Superintendent for Operations and Safety at m.johnson@laschools.net.

If you have any questions or comments regarding the school lunch program please send an email to m.johnson@laschools.net.
