Transportation Busing Registration

Here Comes the Bus

All district busses have a GPS system installed that allows parents and students to "track" the bus and know when it is close to the pickup/dropoff location. The Here Comes the Bus app will also alert you when the bus is getting close. To learn more and install this app on your mobile device please visit this page: Here Comes the Bus
