New Fall 2025 - Stopfinder Bus and Student Tracking
Starting in Fall 2025, the Stopfinder Parent Engagement App will provide parents and guardians with real-time updates on their child's bus location, ETA, and the most accurate transportation information. Students will badge in so parents/guardians can also see when students get to school or return home via bus transportation.
Stopfinder is a Free App and is available on the App Store (Apple Devices) and on Google play (Android Devices)
Invites are sent to the Primary Contact on a Student's Account
Primary Contacts can then invite others to view a Student's Schedule - Click on the three dots to the right of a student name and select Share Schedule (enter and submit information for those you'd like to invite)
Schedules available on the StopFinder app beginning the first day of the school year - i.e. August 13, 2025 or later
Messaging available to the transportation department via the StopFinder App - Click on the three dots to the right of a student name and select Message - please allow ample time for response
Set GeoAlerts or ETA Alerts - Click on the three dots to the right of a student name and select Map, then select Bell icon to add ETA or GeoAlert
