Annual Student Forms: 3 Options
 Every year, CPS asks families to update their permissions and preferences through our Annual Student Forms process. With the launch of our new Annual Forms Gateway, the paper version of this mailing will arrive a little later than usual. However, families should receive their packet before Labor Day Weekend.
There are three ways to complete this important paperwork, if you haven't already:
- Complete the paper packet and send it to school with your child on their first day.
- Look for your child's Student ID# and log into the system using the instructions in the packet.
- Print a complete set of forms from our website and send it to school on the first day.

New! MBTA Bus Passes for High School Students
 CPS high school students are eligible to receive discounts on MBTA bus and subway trips by requesting a Charlie Card in the main office at Cambridge Rindge & Latin School (CRLS). Thanks to support from the City of Cambridge, those who qualify for free or reduced price meals can now ride for FREE by simply bringing a copy of their Food Services Letter to the main office.

Note: Upper School students are also eligible for the student discount. The Upper School main office can tell you more.

 Wondering about the closest bus stop but your transportation letter got lost in the mail? Check out the CPS Transportation website and click on Find a Bus Route. Enter your home address to check whether your child is eligible and find the closest bus stop. You can also use this resource to see if your child can take the school bus to an after-school program. Other online resources include our GPS Bus Tracker, bus safety information, and transportation tips for older students.
