Bus Transportation

Where's My Bus app
BPS Transportation Hotline: 617-635-9520
Transportation Support Portal for requests, complaints, or inquiries

Boston Public Schools offers a School Bus tracking application which uses GPS to tell you exactly where your child's school bus is on the route so you can predict their pick-up and drop-off times.  You will need your student's ID to access the app - find this information on your student's transportation assignment letter.

BPS Bus Policy
Please see the BPS policy on bus transportation in the Guide to the Boston Public Schools for details. Students who misbehave on the bus are subject to discipline under the BPS Code of Discipline.  The Main Office may receive a bus driver's report or other verifiable complaint of misbehavior.
