We are excited to introduce FirstView®, a new app provided by First Student that will be available for use starting October 1st, 2024. This app is designed to make your experience with school transportation more convenient and informed. With FirstView, you will have access to real-time updates on the location of your child’s school bus.

FYI-  If you are needing/asking for a District Code, you've downloaded the incorrect FirstView app. The correct app is FirstView Classic (link below) and parents will need to enter their student's ID as it appears in the student data.

Key Features of the FirstView App:

• Real-Time Bus Location: Track your child’s bus location as it makes its way to the bus stop.

• Push Notifications: Receive notifications when the bus is approaching your stop, ensuring you are always prepared.

• Weekly Updates: Information is updated every Monday morning. Please note that any changes made during the week will not appear until the following Monday.

  1. To get started: Download the FirstView app https://www.firstviewapp.com/ from the FirstView website https://firststudentinc.com/innovation/firstview/

  2.  Or click the link for your respective app store -  Apple.    Google Play

  3. Set up an account using your child’s student ID, which you can find in their SchoolTool (Parent Portal) account.

For any questions or assistance with the app, please contact First Student directly at 315-523-7836. We hope this new tool will help improve your daily routines and provide greater peace of mind regarding your child’s transportation.
