Thank you for your continued support as we work together to make this school year a success. We are so proud of our amazing students!

Attention Bus Rider Families: Use Stopfinder to share transportation schedules!
What is Stopfinder?
Stopfinder is the all-in-one parent app that allows Jeffco Public Schools to share your student’s transportation schedule, announcements and more with designated parents and guardians. Stopfinder works with Jeffco’s transportation software to provide the most accurate schedule information quickly.
With the Stopfinder app, you can view your student’s schedule from your mobile device, share student schedules with caregivers and family members and view announcements and notifications in the Stopfinder Message Center.
Stopfinder is secure and only for registered users. Designated contacts of bus rider families will receive an email invitation providing access to log in to the Stopfinder app.
Bus rider families will receive an email invitation with more information on how to install the app!
