Pembroke Pines (K-12) Campus - School Info

Transportation Information

Busing

Once your child has been accepted to Franklin Academy, you may request bus transportation during the online registration process.

Transportation is available on a limited basis. Franklin Academy offers transportation for students who live between 2 and 8 miles from the campus. If you live within two miles of the campus, you must provide transportation for your child(ren). If you live more than 8 miles from campus, Franklin offers “depot” stops, where families can bring their students to meet the bus. The “depot” stops are conveniently located near each of Franklin’s K-8 campuses located in Pembroke Pines, Cooper City and Sunrise. The “depot” stop transportation option is offered on a first come first serve basis, as space is limited.

Parent Vehicles

Parents are welcome to drive their students to and from our campus. Franklin Academy utilizes our custom built FranklinPass dismissal system to manage pick-up and drop-off traffic.  Detailed procedures on the arrival and dismissal processes can be found in the Policies & Procedures section of the website.
