School Administrators 

School Administrators are always asked to find answers to the following questions:

• How do I minimize parent calls and complaints?
• How do I ensure we are keeping track of all students at all times?
• How can I ensure student safety while still saving money?
• How do I maximize my state funding reimbursements?
  
  

BusBoss Features For Your Routing & Scheduling Needs

BusBoss Routing
Give your staff the tools they need to easily create and modify bus routes, stops and set of buses in a variety of combinations using a graphic map of your school district. Our routing software comes with fleet and route optimization tools that automatically generates optimal routes and assigns students to transfer buses. Routes may be displayed using different colors to keep routes from overlapping.

Special Education Routing
BusBoss has the ability to graphically display bus stops and house locations of students with special needs. Routing functions are the same for special education routes as for regular routes.  

Student Incidents
Monitor and manage student incidents to record the date, person reporting, description of the incident and action taken. Incident reports can be printed by student or by driver.

Ensure Driver Requirements are Kept Up to Date
Prevent unlicensed or unqualified drivers from running your routes.  BusBoss tracks and alerts you when driver licenses, recertifications, physicals and all other requirements have expired or are about to expire to make sure the renewals are done on time.

Geocode Addresses
Locate student addresses and stops on your map automatically using exact latitude/longitude coordinates or reverse geocoding using GPS tracking data.  Know what areas are growing fast to make sure building capacities are not exceeded.

Sex Offenders And Threat Zones
Visually identify the location of sex offenders and threat zones located within your school district to ensure bus stops are kept at a safe distance and students are kept safe. Daily updates for sex offenders may be downloaded automatically from the Family Watchdog website (annual fees apply).

Redistricting
Create unlimited sets of school boundaries for redistricting scenarios due to a school closing, new school opening or as a way to balance bus loads at existing schools. Aid the political process by creating small neighborhood zones and generate student count reports to assist the school board in their decision-making process.

State Transportation Funding Reports
The BusBoss transportation management system delivers accurate state reporting to ensure maximum state funding reimbursements. Monthly, quarterly and annual state reports may be generated from within BusBoss to eliminate the need for manual reporting. PDE-1049 and DRTRS electronic submissions are also available.

BusBoss can help with:

• Keeping everything running smoothly while keeping costs down
• Ensure maximum productivity of all of your bus drivers and staff
• Quickly assess operations with accurate and timely reports
