Bus Schedule
It is our pleasure to welcome everyone back for another great year and to welcome new students to Our Lady of Victory School. We are all excited to have students back in our classrooms and hallways filling them with energy and enthusiasm for learning. It is our mission to help every child feel welcomed, connected, and a part of our OLV family.
This year Our Lady of Victory School has added a bus to the south end of the city. Students who were previously on the school van will now be on a school bus.

get notifications if buses are running late
