***Important Transportation Update***

NEW THIS YEAR – My Ride K-12 App
Beginning this school year, Walled Lake Consolidated Schools will use the My Ride K-12 app for all transportation notifications and updates. Parents/guardians will need to have the My Ride K-12 app in order to receive important information regarding their student's transportation.

Please note: The Transportation Hotline will no longer be used for transportation updates.

Directions for downloading and setting up the My Ride K-12 app can be found on the District's Transportation website. Visit the Transportation page and scroll down to the “My Ride K-12 App/Website Setup” section for complete instructions.

https://www.wlcsd.org/departments/transportation

Families who use District transportation are strongly encouraged to download and set up the app before the first day of school so they don't miss important bus updates
