‘My daughter got on the wrong bus, so I was able to track her from my own air tag,” says one mom.
New all-electric busses at the LAUSD bus yard in Sun Valley Tuesday, May 2, 2023. Superintendent Alberto Carvalho announced a new 75 million-dollar plan to convert the bus yard to be completely electric by 2026. A new GPS system for L.A. Unified parents to track their childrens’ bus routes on the LAUSD app launched in May to share real-time updates and information about delays — but there have been glitches.
Parents and guardians use several means to track students on the bus, including Apple air tags, cell phones, as well as the district’s GPS. “Real time tracking was not working on the app while my kids were riding the bus this past week, hoping it starts working at some point,” one parent wrote. “I don’t know anyone whose GPS is running correctly,” said John Lewis, who has been driving an LAUSD bus for 30 years.
