Attention: etymologists and logophiles!

"Bussing" or "Busing", a transitive verb meaning to transport by bus. In this application it refers to school children being transported for an event. What is the correct form of this word and why?

I know how I feel, but I would like to hear how -you- feel.

I am in the midst of an argument about how to spell this word in promotional materials.

*Edit: I should add that I am in the USA.(and frequently have to try not to type "colour" or "favourite"... bleh)
