Real-time school bus tracking for districts. No student data collected. No app download. Just a live map on any phone — controlled entirely by your district.

Is the bus running late?
No way to know without calling the school office — which is usually already overwhelmed at drop-off time.
Did it already pass our stop?
Children standing outside in the cold, parents unsure whether to wait or drive — all for lack of a simple answer.
How much longer should my child wait?
Small delays compound into anxiety. A live map eliminates the uncertainty entirely.
These questions create unnecessary stress for families and a steady stream of calls to school offices. The fix is straightforward: show parents and students where the bus is, in real time.
We work with your district's bus transportation contractor to connect to the GPS hardware already installed on the buses. No new hardware or contracts required.
The tracker is never public. Your district manages login credentials and decides which families can view which routes. Parents receive access through the district — not through a public app store.
A clean, mobile-friendly map shows where each bus is in real time. Works in any browser on any phone. No app download needed. No account creation for families.
school-bus.app tracks vehicles, not people. We have no connection to any student information system, no knowledge of who is on the bus, and no collection of student or parent personal information. The district controls all access. We show where the buses are. Nothing more.
Minimal technical burden. We integrate with the bus transportation contractor directly — the district's role is coordination, not implementation. Any district working with a contracted bus company that has GPS-equipped vehicles can get started.
One link, any phone, no app to install. Open your browser, see exactly where your bus is and when it will arrive at your stop. Access is provided through the district — no self-registration, no personal data required.
We're working with select school districts on early pilot programs — covering one or two routes for a single term. Low commitment, real results for families.
