Yellow Buses Roll Today as Neshaminy Begins Staggered Return
Feasterville Trevose, PA · August 31, 2026
Yellow buses are rolling through township neighborhoods early today. Keep an extra eye on crosswalks and bus stops as the new school year gets moving.
The Lead
Neshaminy School District opens the 2026–2027 academic year this morning with a staggered return, welcoming kindergarteners, fifth graders, and incoming ninth graders for their orientation day.
The transition schedule gives students entering elementary, middle, and high schools dedicated time to tour unfamiliar hallways, meet teachers, and run through bus routines before all grade levels report on Tuesday. Lower Southampton police patrols and crossing guards are stationed along key school corridors, including Brownsville Road, Bridgetown Pike, and surrounding neighborhood connectors. Drivers should prepare for active 15 mph school zone flashers and slight delays during peak morning and mid-afternoon travel windows. All remaining grades join classes tomorrow morning at normal bell times.

Spotlight & Story
