SMART tag Bus System Launches November 4!

Beginning Wednesday, November 4, parents can start tracking their child’s bus routes in real time using the SMART Tag Parent App. The app allows you to see when and where your student boards or exits the bus. The current MyStop App will remain active through December during the transition.

Key Details:


  • Primary Parent Setup First: The primary parent (listed first in the Parent Portal or student's account) must set up their app account before giving access to another parent/guardian.

  • Daily SMART Tag Requirement: Please ensure your student carries their SMART Tag every day. Replacement tags cost $3 and can be purchased via MySchoolBucks.

  • Support: For questions or assistance, email smarttaghelpGROUP@magnoliaisd.org. Phone support during route times is limited due to staff availability.
