Bus Rider PORTAL

Dear Parents and Guardians,

 

​

 

Below are tabs for General Education High School, General Education Elementary/Middle School and Special Needs High School, and Special Needs Elementary/Middle School. Included are current bus rules and the form to be filled out for general transportation students requesting bus service. Special needs students require an IEP meeting to qualify for transportation.

​

All High School General Education Students MUST RENEW BUS PASSES EACH SCHOOL YEAR TO RIDE THE SCHOOL BUS. Renew by clicking on the Bus Pass Order Form below.

​

All General Education Elementary and Middle School Bus Riders must request a Bus Pass by completing a Transit Bus Transportation Request (TBTR) form that must be submitted. The form can be obtained from the school site. The parent/guardian must complete the request form and the student must return it to the school site within 5 business days to avoid loss of ridership. Incomplete requests will not be processed. After the request has been processed, your student will be provided with a Bus Pass from the bus driver.

                                                                                                 

                                                                                                                                                                                                       

​AVSTA is pleased to announce our transition to a new student-tracking software application called Wayfinder. Wayfinder functions utilizing RFID passes for each bus rider. In addition, Wayfinder includes a built-in navigation feature that uses our scheduled bus routes, allowing our drivers to receive accurate stop-by-stop directions and enabling precise reporting and analysis for your school district. Wayfinder offers its own parent application, called Stopfinder, which has been added to our system this summer. Our expectation is to have the Stopfinder Parent app available to all parents and guardians for the 2026 - 2027 school year.  AVSTA will send out invitations to all current parent/guardian email addresses beginning during the summer which will then allow parents to download the Stopfinder app. Please make sure your email is correct with your school siteAdditional information is available on the Stopfinder Parent App Information tab will be provided to each parent/guardian through their student’s bus driver as well as email and phone messages.
