School bus schedule changes can cause havoc for schools, parents and students. School transportation directors are often caught in a mess between driver updates and notifying parents. There are technologies that can simplify parent-bus notifications that are personalized and updated in real time.
Key Notification Challenges
Transportation directors often need to communicate busing or scheduling changes to concerned parents. Communication needs to be both tailored and timely – ensuring that only the right parents get the right updates. This can often be time consuming or, when done wrong, cause undo confusion. Without the right tools, parents can become needlessly worried and frustrated.
