The shuttle service offers transportation to and from Farmington public schools, with pick-up and drop-off points in close proximity to your home. The shuttles are easily identifiable by their bright yellow color and traffic-stopping<\/a>, flashing red lights. The service will also offer students a space to socialize, get ahead on their homework, or simply read a good book.
