Abilene ISD utilizes the SMART tag system to increase safety and security for students riding on a school bus, leveraging technology to improve student management and communications on school buses.
SMART tag monitors the location of each tablet-equipped school bus, including student loading and unloading, providing real-time information to the Transportation Department, and you, the parent.
SMART tag will help:
increase driver, school, and parent awareness
ensure riders will load on the right bus and unload at the right stop
maximize rider safety and security
enable drivers to efficiently and effectively carry out their duties
ensure Special Education and Pre-K students are released to authorized guardians.
We encourage parents to download the SMART tag parent app on the Apple App Store or Google Play store, then sign up to receive push notifications to alert you when the bus is near your student’s designated bus stop.
