For current families

Getting to and from NOCA.

NOCA students arrive by car line, on foot or bike, and by district bus transportation from several Northwest Ohio districts. Here's how each option works.

Car line

Drop-off & pickup

Student drop-off runs from 7:40–8:00 am, and pickup runs from 3:00–3:20 pm. Car line details are provided to families at orientation. We encourage families to carpool!

Student drivers

Permit parking

Permit parking is available for enrolled, licensed student drivers. Contact the Main Office for details.

Walkers & bikers

On foot or by bike

Students may walk or bike to school at their guardian's discretion. A bike rack is available on campus for students who need it.

Bussing

District bus transportation.

NOCA does not operate its own buses. Several Northwest Ohio school districts provide bus transportation to and from NOCA for students who live in their district. Families are responsible for setting up bussing directly with the district they reside in.

Please note: a request for transportation does not guarantee transportation. Each request is evaluated individually, and alternate options may be offered where appropriate — including, but not limited to, payment in lieu of transportation. Afternoon bus transportation is not available on early dismissal days; contact your district directly to understand how bussing works for delays and cancellations.
