The District will be providing its own yellow bus transportation service for all Mercer Island High School students who live on Mercer Island and live 1.0 mile or more from MIHS. We have discontinued our King County Metro service. MIHS students will be able to ride any one of our six District yellow buses to school or from school. All buses will drop off and pick up on the bus pullout on 92nd Ave SE. Please go to the Transportation Department on the MISD website for information related to MIHS transportation, including bus stop locations and pick-up/drop off times.
