Stopfinder App Helps Track School Bus
- 2024
- July
A recent change to the Stopfinder mobile app is expected to improve the user experience for WCS families who want to track their child's bus.
The WCS Transportation Department switched GPS vendors over the summer, and so far, the results have been great.
"The new vendor provides much better service," said WCS Planning and Zoning Manager Allison Nunley. "It was tested in June with great results. If you stopped using the app, please try it again."
Those new to the district or new to riding the bus will receive an activation email before the start of school. If there isn't an activation email in your inbox, please check the junk mail folder. Once the account is activated, families can open the app and scroll the calendar to August 5 to see the bus schedule.
Once the subscription is activated, families may download the free app and sign in to view bus schedules. Families who used the app last year will still be able to access their accounts. Additionally, parents can share the schedule with other parents and caregivers by selecting the three dots beside the student's name.
The Stopfinder Parent Guide on the WCS website offers more information about the app.
