Here Comes the Bus App
Columbus County Schools has created a FREE application that allows parents to track their child’s bus. The app is available NOW! During this first phase the app may not have full functionality for all users… If you have any issues or questions, please fill out this form. Parents will need to know their child’s Student ID number. Schools are sending home information next week with all the information needed. If you know your child’s ID number, you can sign up NOW!
Please note –
1) This app tracks the BUS not individual children.
2) Your home will show “not arrived” if the bus does not stop and open the door (for example if the child is not at the road)
