Bus transportation changes must be submitted by emailing us at JCPS.WEBDuBois.Transportation@jefferson.kyschools.us
Paper notes may be accepted prior to and the morning of the transportation change. Parent signature, phone number, and date must be noted.
The cut off time for same day transportation changes is 1:45p daily. Office staff will NOT be able to accommodate changes after that point in the day. We apologize ahead of time for any inconvenience.
Student early dismissal ends at 1:45p. This is to ensure the bus circle is clear of traffic while preparing for dismissal and the car rider line is not interrupted. Please email JCPS.WEBDubois.Transportation@jefferson.kyschools.us PRIOR to 1:45p to notify us that your young Lion/King needs a transportation change. Once you arrive, enter the car rider line if you are picking up your young Lion/King after 1:45p. He will be dismissed during normal car rider dismissal after 2:10p.
Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) is once again using the Edulog Parent Portal Lite smartphone app to help you receive information about your student’s school bus ride. The app allows you to see real-time information about the location of your student’s school bus and receive notifications when the bus is getting close.
To get started, download the Edulog Parent Portal Lite app from the Apple or Android store. You can download the app using the QR code found on the JCPS Edulog Parent Portal Lite website.
After downloading the app, you’ll be asked to enter a registration code. Use district registration code: 98295545. Please do not share this code as it is specific to JCPS buses.
Go to the DISTRICT tab, tap the plus sign (+) in the top right to add the district code. When the code is accepted, you will see the district name and the number of buses you are following (initially zero).
Next, tap on the slide button to activate one or more buses. Tap on My Buses in the Main Menu below. You can scroll to each bus by swiping the vehicle box. Tap on the plus sign (+) to add an Alert Zone. Enter an address or move the map, name the alert zone, add a time frame, adjust the radius with the slide button, then hit Save. Once your vehicles have been added and alert zones created, they will be listed on the Home screen. To access your Inbox, tap the envelope icon on the Home screen, where you can view Messages and Notifications.
You can view the location of a bus by tapping that particular bus in the MY BUSES tab.
Notifications are sent immediately when a GPS ping from your bus occurs within the notification zone. The school bus sends regular GPS pings to the app database in the cloud every 15-20 seconds. As with all technology, disruptions can occur. A lag can be produced if there is a disruption in cellular service or the GPS unit on the bus is disconnected. Make sure to monitor the app for bus movement before the expected bus time.
You can view the instructions in Spanish and learn more about the app at our website.
Remember, to find your student’s bus stop location and bus number, visit our Bus Teller portal at JCPSFirstDay.com. We encourage you to check Bus Teller frequently, as it will continue to populate and update through the first day of school. If you need assistance, you can call 485-RIDE to talk with a JCPS staff member.
