TRANSPORTATION

The MyRide K12 app will allow you to view the student's assigned bus stop, pick-up/drop-off times, and receive an estimated time of arrival. Students in Grades K - 8 will receive a fob to scan during orientation to use when boarding and departing their designated bus. Students in Grades 9 - 12 will not receive a bus fob, but the My Ride K12 app is still used to provide up-to-date route information.
