My Ride K-12: Your Real-Time Transportation Portal

• It is a secure web and mobile application designed to help parents and students track school bus information.
• The portal provides access to specific bus stop locations, route information, and pickup times.

• You can download the My Ride K-12 mobile app for both Apple and Android devices.
• If you prefer not to use a mobile device, a specific web portal is also available for desktop access.

• Yes. When buses are equipped with GPS hardware, the app uses geolocation to show the vehicle's location relative to your assigned stops.
• This allows you to know exactly when to expect the bus each day, drastically reducing morning guesswork.

• Security is a top priority; parents and guardians are only permitted to access the transportation data of their own children.
• The district also has the ability to mark specific students as confidential to ensure they cannot be viewed in the app if necessary.

• The app features a Message Center where you can receive push notifications for transportation alert.
• For example, you might receive a notification if there is a specific route delay.

• Not at all. The interface is designed to be user-friendly and intuitive, making it immediately familiar to anyone who has used a standard mobile app.
• Most users can access their data quickly with little to no training.

• We want to empower our families with accurate, timely routing data that is always within reach.
• By providing this direct access, we can drastically reduce the number of phone calls to the transportation department, ensuring our staff can focus on safe operations.

The district will continue to send texts and phone calls for the 2025-2026 school year. Those will stop at the beginning of the 2026-2027 school year.
