When Can I Begin Using the Chipmunk App?

PGCPS is moving from pilot testing into full implementation of the new Chipmunk bus tracking app, with districtwide access on track for before winter break! This app will replace the former StopFinder app.

This is when families can expect to be able to begin using the new app.

Transportation and IT teams are expanding access week by week. Their work includes GPS verification, route accuracy checks, and final quality reviews to ensure dependable, real-time information as each lot comes online.

Families will be notified when their lot is activated and can begin using Chipmunk for live bus tracking immediately once their route is connected.

What Families Can Expect

• Bus lots will continue to be activated through November and early December
• Families will be notified when their lot is added to the app
• Real-time tracking becomes available once a child’s route is connected

Thank you for your patience as we continue building toward districtwide access!
