Wondering if your child's school bus has been delayed?

A new bus status-tracking app, called MySPPS Bus, is now available from St. Paul Public Schools.

The MySPPS Bus app will provide bus delay information directly to families and staff and will help keep users up-to-date on the arrival time of school buses. The MySPPS Bus information is on school websites and the app is available through Google Play and the Apple App Store.

It is not a GPS tracking system. This service only communicates delays at the time it was posted on a school's web site by the district's transportation department.
