New! Get Bus Info with the My Ride K-12 App!

Families can now use the My Ride K-12 app to find:

  • Bus number

  • Bus stop location

  • Pick-up and drop-off times

The app is also how the transportation office will send messages about things like late buses or emergency changes. You can even message them directly.

How to Get Started with the My Ride K12 App:

Watch this video or follow these steps-

  1. Download the My Ride K-12 app on your phone.

  2. Find your child’s 6-digit ID number in the Skyward app:

    • Tap the 3 lines in the top right

    • Scroll down to “Student Information”

    • Look for “Other ID”

  3. Sign up using YOUR info (not your child’s):

    • Email, first name, last name, and a password

    • Make sure your name matches what’s in Skyward

    • If you have two last names, enter both

  5. Add your child’s ID number(s)

    • Tap “My Students” to see your child

    • Tap their name, then “Bus Location” to see their info

If you used this app in another school district, just add Fife.

Change of Plans for After School?

Because the last hour before school dismisses is the busiest time in the office it would be very helpful if you could notify the office as early as possible.  If you want to make transportation changes for your student, please call the school before 2:00pm to notify the office of the change. If calls are received after 2:00pm, the office cannot guarantee your child will receive the updated information prior to school dismissal.

NO early dismissals after 3:15pm.  Students will not be removed from bus lines or buses.  State issued identification is required of the adult who is signing out a student.

When writing a note, or notifying the office, please have the following information available

  • Your child’s first and last name.
  • Who is picking up your child?
  • What bus # will they be taking?
  • Who will they be riding the bus with?
  • What stop will they be getting off at?

By having more information, we will be able to ensure your child gets where you intend them to go. Thank you in advance for you cooperation.

Temporary Permission for an Unauthorized Adult to Pick-Up Student:   If anyone other than a parent or someone designated as an authorized contact is picking a child up at any time, we must have a dated note signed by the parent or a phone call giving special permission. The designated person must come to the office, provide state issued identification, and sign the child out.
