Join D26 to learn more about NYC School Bus App. The NYC Department of Education has partnered with Via to provide real-time, GPS technology in all school buses that serve District 26 schools.
The goal is to make it easy for families to verify a student’s location when they are riding the school bus and provide near real-time pickup and drop-off times. The Office of Pupil Transportation and Via representatives will introduce and explain the NYC School Bus App to our families and answer any questions.
