Real-time tracking with WheresTheBus 

Thank you to everyone who has created a WheresTheBus account and started using the app to track your child’s bus! RVS has now fully transitioned to using WhereTheBus, and is no longer using the Bus Status App to share bus information.

Please note, WheresTheBus is one more tool to provide information about your child’s bus ride and should not replace standard safety measures such as arriving to your bus stop five minutes before your child’s scheduled pick up time, having a back up plan in case of a delay and ensuring your child is dressed appropriately for the weather.

Please review the Parent/Guardian Responsibilities on the Transportation section of our website. 

Land Acknowledgment

Rocky View Schools would like to acknowledge the land and recognize all the Indigenous Peoples whose footprints have marked these lands from time immemorial. Together, we can learn and honour the Ways of Knowing of Indigenous Peoples for all future generations.
