What happens if my child misses the school bus?
With The School Bus Tracker, the family is told as soon as the bus leaves the child's pickup stop without them, so they can make other arrangements straight away.
In short
With The School Bus Tracker, the family is told as soon as the bus leaves the child's pickup stop without them, so they can make other arrangements straight away. The driver can also ring the phone number the parent gave if the child is not at the stop.
If the child was never going to ride that day, marking it in advance under Not riding means they are not booked on the bus, the driver does not wait, and the day is not charged for.
