IDEA Public Schools is committed to ensuring the safe transportation of your child to and from school.
IDEA Public Schools now utilizes a new parent app called Stopfinder. Stopfinder is the easy to use, all-in-one app that allows you to have the most accurate information about your student’s bus schedule at anytime from anywhere. In addition to displaying your student’s transportation information, Stopfinder features a private messaging feature that will allow you to communicate directly with IDEA’s Transportation Department. You can also create GeoAlerts for your student, which will notify you when the bus has arrived in/departed from any location on your student’s route, including their assigned bus stop and school.
Here’s how to get connected:
1. Activate your subscription. An invitation email will be sent to the email address we have on file. (Please be sure to check your spam folder, or click here to make sure we have an email on file.) If you have still not received an email, please reach out to your campus transportation manager. Transportation manager contact information by campus can be found below.
2. Enter a password to complete the activation of your subscription. Please create your own password and be sure to keep it in a safe place!
3. Install the Stopfinder application on your phone from the Google Play or Apple App Store.
4. Sign in using the same email address you received the invitation email and your newly created password.
5. That’s it! Click here for an overview on how to view schedules, add GeoAlerts, and more!
At IDEA Public Schools, the journey to and from school is an extension of classroom learning. To help us provide a safe and pleasant bus ride experience for your children, please follow the two steps below to ensure the accuracy of your child’s transportation information:
Log into PowerSchool and click on the transportation tab. From there, you can register for transportation (student route should be available within 2 business days of submission) or verify your child’s bus stop information. Once registered you can move to step 2.
When your children scans their bus pass, this application allows you to see, in real time, where your child’s bus is and when and where your child got on or off. This easy-to-use technology is free, simply download the “Here Comes the Bus” application on your smartphone, create a secure account, add your children, and you’re all set!
IDEA’s school code for Texas is: 83127
IDEA’s school code for Louisiana is: 87857
IDEA is committed to providing excellent transportation services to students throughout the Rio Grande Valley and Central Texas. Students are encouraged to take full advantage of this free service. Transportation, however, is a privilege, and all student riders and their families are expected to sign and follow our Bus Rider Behavior Contract.
