PCSD 25 mandatory transportation registration ends July 28

POCATELLO, Idaho - (KIFI) Riding the school bus? New mandatory transportation registration closes July 28.

The Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 Transportation Department is excited to announce a new routing software program, BusRight. One of the necessary requirements to operate BusRight with success and efficiency is a mandatory student registration process for bus transportation.

This registration is mandatory for all PCSD 25 learners who plan to ride the bus next school year. The deadline to register is Friday, July 28. No further action is required for those learners who are already registered.

For the upcoming 2023-2024 school year, PCSD 25 will be implementing online student registration to request student transportation. The registration process is simple and only requires the parent/guardian/student to verify that their student information, including the primary address, is correct on Infinite Campus, followed by checking a tick box to confirm that student transportation is needed. 

To guarantee busing services on the first day of school, the registration process outlined above must be complete by July 28, 2023.  Learners may not ride a school bus until the registration process is completed. Once the Transportation Department receives the registration request (by clicking the tick box for transportation and submitting the form), the student’s eligibility for busing will be determined and the student will be assigned to a bus stop based on the primary address listed on Infinite Campus. 

Follow the step-by-step Instructions listed below to register for student transportation for the 2023-2024 school year:

·         Log in to Infinite Campus

·         Click on “document” with thumb or mouse

·         Check to make sure the current year is listed – the system is already defaulted to 22-23

·         Select the “Bus Registration 2024” form under the transportation tab

·         Check the tick box to confirm the need/want for school bus transportation for the 23-24 school year. 

·         Digitally sign the request.

·         Select submit. 

·         The request will be automatically submitted to the transportation department to determine student’s eligibility for transportation services.  If eligible, the routing office will process the student’s information and then assign the student to a bus route and stop.  Again, this determination is based on the student’s primary address listed in Infinite Campus.
