Transportation
You can walk, bike, or ride the school bus to and from school. Public Transportation is accessed from the East side of Edina quite easily. Access to many parts of the Twin Cities, is a simple trip to our local mall where an intern can catch a bus. Access to public transportation from some parts of Edina may be challenging. It is not unusual for you to depend on others for transportation. The following suggestions may help you when seeking transportation assistance:
Ask for rides in as far as advance as possible
Be wiling to carpool with other interns
Be flexible when asking for a ride
Don’t always ask the same family for rides
If you cannot safely walk, bike, or use public transportation you should use the following steps in the order listed:
Submit a Ride Request to the Facebook Neighboorhood Network for Edina Interns Group
Ask your partner family if they are available to help with transportation.
Then ask your host family for a ride.
If after completing steps 1-3 you still unable to find a ride, you may contact a committee member for transportation assistance.

Maps & Schedules
Be sure to get to the stop five minutes early. When the bus approaches, signal for it to stop. Always check the sign above the windshield for the route number to make sure it’s yours. The sign also will flash some of the major streets and destinations on the route. If the bus is the one you want, just hop on.
