Transportation and Meals
Transportation Options
Did you know that Realms Middle School is Bend's only middle school to earn Oregon Green School status?!
At Realms Middle School we strongly encourage families to plan transportation to and from school in a way that is environmentally responsible whenever possible. Below is information about ways that kids can get to and from school without putting more cars on the road.
Biking
Like the freedom of biking and the feeling of some exercise at the start and end of each day? Considering biking to school? AWESOME! We have students who bike to school often, and we encourage all students to try it out during our "Bike to School Days" in the Fall - stay tuned for more information, and don't forget your helmet!
Bus Transportation
Realms Middle School Student transportation: For students accepted to attend a choice option school, limited bus service is available. The District offers transportation to choice option schools from designated central locations. Neighborhood routes are not provided. In addition, families must provide their own student transportation for students granted a Priority Area Change Request.
If you have questions about the bus routes, please review the Transportation webpage or contact Transportation through email or phone at 541-355-5700.
Carpooling
In addition to limited bus options, many of our families set up carpools. This is a great way to reduce your environmental footprint AND save yourself some time!
School Lunch Meals
Some things that make the Realms Middle School lunch program a little different from other
Bend-La Pine schools:
- We will customize our menu offering 2 hot meal entrees/day plus 1 vegetarian entree per day
- We will have a fresh fruit and salad bar available daily
- Realms Middle School will not serve any "convenience items" (e.g., corn dogs, tater tots, or any other pre-made foods NOT cooked in the Bend High kitchen)
- We will continue to serve our food on real plates, with real silverware - no paper boats for us!
- And of course, the NINJAS!!!
