Reminder: Parents of Car Rider Students
Attention Parents of Bus Riders:
Dear Parents,
Alief ISD has contracted with Secured Mobility LLC to use a program designed to increase safety and security for students riding on the bus.
By using SMART ID cards and iPads mounted inside each bus, students will scan onto and off of the bus each morning and afternoon.
SMART tag technology provides real-time information on students loading and unloading data to the school, the Alief ISD Transportation Department and to you, the parent.
Benefits
- It ensures that students load on the right bus and unload at the correct bus stop.
Requirements:
- All students must keep their SMART ID cards attached to their backpacks.
- Students must wear the cards home each day and back to school the next day.
- Cards are $5 to replace.
Kindergarten Riders:
- Families of Kindergarten students will continue to use the established system for authorized guardian releases at bus stops.
If you have any questions, please contact the Alief ISD Transportation Department at 281-983-8400.
Visit the Alief Transportation Website for more information.
NOTE: There is no GPS function in the card itself. The GPS is located in the bus-mounted iPad.
