New! Online Bus Route Status Updates

To assist with awareness of potential bus delays, parents and guardians can now view the status of bus routes on their school’s website. Bus routes that currently do not have a permanently assigned driver due the staffing shortage — and which therefore may experience delays — will be listed. Route statuses will be updated by the PGCPS transportation team as available.

Track Your Bus with the StopFinder App

Families are also encouraged to use our StopFinder app to track the location of their child’s bus in real time. Parents/guardians must have an email address on file in the SchoolMax Family Portal to be invited to download the StopFinder app from Google Play or the Apple App Store. Please check your email for an invitation to download the StopFinder app for the 2023 - 2024 school year. StopFinder Help/FAQs
