Student Services
The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) and the Clark County School District (CCSD) are partnered to offer the RTC RideOn program, providing select high school students with an option to ride RTC transit to and from school, FREE of charge.
Utilizing RTC-OnDemand service, select students will have a safe and reliable alternative to get to and from school, after-school activities, weekend events, and more! For rides outside the OnDemand zone, residential routes are easily accessible from transit stops within the zone.
Eligibility
Students are eligible to opt into the RTC RideOn program, provided they are first eligible for CCSD transportation services. Students must live more than 2.0 miles from their zoned school, as per school district regulation 3530.  To verify eligibility and enroll in the program, students must sign up below or in your school’s main office.
Upon verification of eligibility, students will be issued an electronic semester bus pass via email for alternative busing services through the RTC. Students that do not have access to email or a mobile phone, paper passes may be provided upon request through your school’s administrators.
Once the semester pass expires, the RTC will issue a new semester pass for the remainder of the school year.
Eligible Schools

Students at Liberty HS or Desert Oasis HS will schedule and book their ride via the RTC-OnDemand app and be picked up and dropped off from a designated stop near their home or school.

These students will take our traditional bus service and be picked up and dropped off at the closest transit stop from their house and their school. Click on any one of the schools below to see a map of the covered area.

Cancellation/No-Show Equal Opportunity Booking Program
When students cancel or no-show for their booked trips, it has a negative impact on all RTC-OnDemand riders. When a trip is booked, that seat is reserved in the system. This means no other passengers are able to book during that time. To ensure that there is availability for as many riders as possible, we use the Equal Opportunity Booking program to manage cancellations and no-shows by all our riders.
A passenger’s account is placed into the Equal Opportunity Booking (EOB) program when the number of late cancellations and/or no shows exceeds 25% of rides booked within 60 days. The account will initially be limited for seven (7) days. During this period, passengers will only be able to book up to 48 hours in advance and will be limited to no more than 2 trips at a time.
Late Cancellation is the result of cancelling a booking 30 minutes or less before the estimated pick-up time.
A No-Show is a result of not being on the bus within 2 minutes after its arrival.
