Checking children on and off the bus

How a driver records each child boarding at a stop, scans a bus card, and marks a child who did not show up.

In short

At each stop, mark each child with Student check in or by scanning their bus card with Scan Ticket. If a child is not there, mark Student not show up. Families are told when their child is picked up, or when the bus leaves without them.

Step by step

  1. At the stop

    The app shows the children due at this stop.

  2. Check them in

    Use Student check in for each child who gets on, or Scan Ticket to scan the code on their bus card.

  3. A child who is not there

    Mark Student not show up. When the bus leaves the stop without them, their family is told they missed the pickup, and you can ring the number the parent gave.
