Nipissing-Parry Sound Student Transportation has announced this morning that all area school buses are cancelled. The cancellation is because plows have not been out so there is still a lot of snow on the ground. A very slick surface under the snow is making it very slippery.

NPSSTS stands for Nipissing-Parry Sound Student Transportation Services. We are a consortium governed by a Board of Directors made up of a representative from each of our four local member school boards (Near North District School Board, Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic District School Board, Conseil scolaire public du Nord-Est de l'Ontario, and Conseil scolaire catholique Franco-Nord). We arrange transportation services for students of these boards and apply any harmonized guidelines for the provision of services to all students.
