School bus tracking app coming to Wisconsin school district

 

ROCK COUNTY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Students in one Wisconsin school district will soon know exactly when to leave for the bus stop. 

Starting next year, parents in the Milton School District in Rock County will be able to use an app called Where's My Bus. 

It allows parents to check and see exactly where their kids' buses are before and after school. 

"It will certainly let parents know where their child is, as far as after school and making sure someone's home for them, if the bus is running late, or running early," School Board Member Karen Hall said. 

The school district says the app could also help alert parents if there's an emergency like a bus crash.
