Road Scholars

Let EMBARK take care of the transportation on your next field trip. With EMBARK’s Road Scholars program, field trips are exciting and educational from the start.

Who is Eligible

Student groups of 25 or less, in the EMBARK service area, can take a free field trip transportation on the fixed-route bus, RAPID, OKC Streetcar, and Oklahoma River Cruise ferry.

  • When you ride with EMBARK, you add to your adventure by giving your students a sense of independence. You can also teach them how public transportation helps to keep the environment clean and saves money in parking, gasoline, insurance and car maintenance.
