Students come to Bishop Hendricken every morning from as far as Westerly, Cumberland, and Newport, as well as towns in Massachusetts. Others come from just down the street.
Each student’s transportation needs are different, and we endeavor to accommodate students by providing school-sponsored bus transportation from various cities and towns. We are continuously working to improve existing bus routes and to look for alternate transportation arrangements for our families.
