EL PASO, TEXAS (KFOX14/CBS4) — El Paso ISD families will soon have a new way to keep tabs on school bus transportation, with the district launching Stopfinder, a free mobile app that provides real-time school bus tracking for the 2026-27 school year.
The district said parents and guardians of students who ride the bus will be able to securely view their child’s bus stop information, receive transportation updates, and track the location of their child’s bus during morning and afternoon routes from their mobile device.
Stopfinder’s features include real-time bus tracking during pickup and drop-off, secure family sharing that allows approved caregivers or family members to access bus schedules and tracking, and transportation alerts for route changes, delays, and other updates, according to the district.
Parents and guardians of students who ride the bus will receive an official email invitation with instructions to activate their secure Stopfinder account.
“At El Paso ISD, we’re committed to providing exceptional service to our families,” El Paso ISD Superintendent Dr. Brian Lusk said. “Stopfinder is an important step forward in improving communication and giving parents real-time access to their child’s transportation information.”
Families can learn more about Stopfinder, review bus routes and schedules, and find transportation information at the El Paso ISD Bus Routes webpage here.
As the district launches the app, it also asked the community for its partnership and said it welcomes feedback on the Stopfinder page for continuous improvement.
