Gaeta school bus service
The DoDEA school bus service between Gaeta and NSA Naples Elementary School and Middle High School will be terminated after the 24-25 school year. As of 01 May 2024, all incoming personnel assigned to NSA Naples Gaeta-based UICs will not be permitted to use the DoDEA Gaeta school bus service. Newly reporting personnel with school-age children who will be attending these schools are strongly encouraged to live on the NSA Naples Support Site or within the remaining current bus route plan.
