Transportation Program
For busy Lipscomb Academy families, we realize how challenging it can be to get all of your children to school on time and hassle free. The Lipscomb Academy Transportation Program offers a safe and affordable way for families to get their children to school, offering convenient and secure pick-up and drop-off locations.
For the 2023-24academic year, the South Route is the only transportation option at this time. However, if demand for a North Route increases and a driver with a commercial drivers license is available, then the academy will consider adding a north transportation route.
South Route
- Otter Creek Church of Christ, 409 Franklin Rd., Brentwood, TN 37027
- Pick up: Monday-Friday at 7:00 a.m.
- Drop off: Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 3:45 p.m.; Tuesday/Thursday at 3:30 p.m.
Program Cost
- Round Trip: $130 per child, per month
