• When should we arrive at the bus stop (drop off, arrival)? At least five minutes prior to bus stop arrival time.

• I am a new bus rider, when will I get my SmartTag? Students will be provided a SmartTag by the campus or the bus driver.
• I don’t have a student ID yet, how do I sign up for a SmartTag? Use 000000 if you don’t have a student ID number yet. Please make sure your address in registration matches SkyWard.
• What if the weather is bad? Bad weather does not stop buses from continuing their routes. 
• What if there is a delay? The district will send out notification through the SmartTag parent portal.
• What if I lose my SmartTag? There is a $5.00 replacement fee for a new SmartTag.
