App lets parents monitor students’ buses
CMSD parents can download a free app that allows them to track the travels of their children’s school buses.
Using GPS technology, the app, Edulog Parent Portal, allows a parent to monitor progress of a bus in real time and can provide notice of the vehicle’s distance from the stop or school. Android users can receive notification when a bus is within a customized radius of up to 2 miles.
The app will track only CMSD’s yellow buses, not RTA buses or vans that transport students. It is similar to a web-based option that the District introduced last year.
To use the app, parents will need the student’s first and last names, District ID number, school and birthdate. The District ID and the student’s ID number are the same.
If problems occur while signing up a student, refer to user guides located at www.clevelandmetroschools.org/bustracker.
The app can be downloaded through Google Play or the App Store.
