Transportation Changes

Transportation Changes For safety and quality purposes, if you want to make a transportation change of any kind, it must be done by sending in a separate note (not in the agenda) or you may send a Dojo message or email a note to Mrs. Due- vanessa.due@kenton.kyschools.us by 2:00 p.m.  Unfortunately, teachers are not allowed to take transportation changes directly.  We cannot accept transportation changes by phone unless it is a true emergency.  Please help us by adhering to the transportation change rules.

Track Star (School Bus Tracking) 

 Introduction

Parents and guardians are always interested in the status of the bus that transports their children. While everything possible is done to assure that the buses operate on schedule, situations arise that can cause delays in their arrival times at a student’s stop. The Kenton County School District desires to keep parents and guardians informed of the current status and location of their bus, and to make it as easy as possible to provide this communication without interfering with parents’ normal schedule. The School District is providing a system which can be accessed via a smart phone, laptop, or home PC (as long as the device has Internet connectivity and can access the Web). If there is a question on the status of a particular bus, parents and guardians can access the webpage, which will display the current status and location of that bus. Should the transportation department wish to inform users of a significant delay for a bus or all buses, this site can show the anticipated delay time, i.e. one hour delay due to weather.

Procedure

Using a smart phone or tablet, access any current browser (Safari, Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.) and enter https://kcsd.parentportal.trackstar.app/  This will open the KCSD bus finder Web page, which allows a parent to enter the student’s bus number to find the status and location of that bus. Starting the application opens the “password” screen. KCSD has selected the generic user name “kcsdtrans”. A user simply enters this password and touches the “Login” button; the application will appear.
