Message to SRCE Families Regarding BusPlanner Parent Accounts

SRCE Families,

We hope you are finding some time to enjoy these beautiful summer days.

Last year, the platform BusPlanner was launched for the communication of bus route notices (bus service delays and/or cancellations). As a reminder, parents and guardians are required to sign up annually for a Parent Account in BusPlanner.

Effective, Tuesday, July 14, 2026, Parent Accounts in BusPlanner may be created or recreated (if you had a Parent Account last school year). If you wish to receive bus route notices for your student(s) during the 2026-2027 school year, you are encouraged to create or recreate the Parent Account soon.

Once your Parent Account is set up, please review all transportation details for your student(s) to ensure they are accurate. Staff is updating the information daily. However, if any changes are required, please contact SRCE Transportation staff by email at SRCE BusPlanner.

Please see the following information and resources to help guide you through creating and using a Parent Account in BusPlanner Web, viewing the bus information assigned to your student, and downloading the BusPlanner Delays app if you wish.

BusPlanner Web

• The BusPlanner Web platform allows families to access their student‘s bus information online including bus route number, bus stop locations and pickup/drop-off times.

• To create a Parent Account, access BusPlanner Web, click on the Parent Portal icon and then click on Create Account.

• Please refer to the additional directions included in the following resources:
