The Royse City ISD Transportation and Technology Departments are partnering on a new and safer system to track bus ridership. Bus riders will be issued official Bus Rider Cards to be scanned when they load and unload school buses. Similar to a badge reader, the Bus Rider Cards will allow the district greater details of ridership than ever before.
INFO FOR PRE-K TO 5TH GRADE:
Students who are signed up for bus transportation will be provided with a unique Bus Rider Card. Schools will be provided with the Bus Rider Cards and materials needed to attach them to the child’s backpack. Details coming soon on this procedure.
ACTION REQUIRED FOR FAMILIES
Families of bus riders are asked to complete this brief Bus Rider Registration Form to register your student(s) for transportation services. This form will also prompt our staff to activate a unique Bus Rider Badge for your student(s).
NEXT STEPS
As we grow accustomed to this new system, we know that cards may be lost or misplaced occasionally. We will not deny bus services to students without cards. Procedures for replacement cards and other FAQs will be published soon on the district’s transportation website.
Thank you for taking a moment to learn about this new system! For transportation specific questions, please email brigitte.hargrove@rcisd.org or call 972-636-9732.
