My Ride K-12

The JPS Transportation department will be using an app called “My Ride K-12" for the 2024-25 school year. This app will allow you to see updates to your child’s transportation schedule. The use of this app is optional, but it can serve as a useful tool to see the most up-to-date transportation information. Please remember that Route information will continue to update as more students are added to transportation as school gets underway.

How To Find JPS

After you download the app, you will need to select your school district. When searching and adding the school district, the name will come up as “Jamestown Public Schools New York”.

To add your child and view their transportation information, you will need two unique identifiers: their current grade level and their Student ID. You can also use the app to send important messages to the Transportation Department and important information will be sent from the Transportation Department to you via a push message to your device.
