What is the School Pool Program?
Commuter Connect’s School Pool service helps you organize a carpool with other families at your child’s school who live close to you. It is a FREE service available to all families at participating schools.
Benefits of School Pool
Driving your child to and from school every day takes time, money, and wear and tear on your car. Families who participate in our program save money and feel less stress. School Pool also gives parents and students the opportunity to connect with new families. Finally, carpooling reduces air pollution and traffic congestion, which makes Central Indiana better for all!
