Families can download the free My Ride K-12 and start using it now. My Ride K-12 allows families to access secure data for their child’s bus stop location, route and pickup time from their phone.

Download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

Setting up My Ride K-12
Once you download My Ride K-12, search for Tacoma Public Schools and register for an account. After you confirm your email, log in again and add/link your students. You will need to know your child’s student ID. (If you used the former application, Ride 360, you don’t need a new account; you can log in with your existing credentials.)

More safety features

Most TPS elementary students who ride the bus have a badge to confirm they are on the right bus before their trip starts. The badge also allows guardians and school officials to see when and where students get on and off the bus.

Each year around this season we are contacted by individuals, groups, and programs wanting to help families during the holidays. If you would like to be considered as a recipient, please complete the digital form below. If you have trouble accessing a form, please contact the school counselor, Julie Slaughter, at 253-571-5783.
