Please Note: We will be moving from daily updates to weekly updates starting next week.

Beginning Monday, September 15, Fredericksburg City Public School’s Transportation updates will be delivered through ParentSquare to bus route-specific groups. We created this mechanism internally and have tested it to be sure it works as designed. While we do not expect any issues Monday, there may be some as this is the first official roll-out. Our goal is to efficiently communicate with you.

All bus updates will be pushed as Alerts, which means all updates will be instantaneous.

Parents/Guardians and Secondary Students should expect to see a text message from 66458.

Please contact your child’s school if any additional recipients (Guests) need to be added to your child’s ParentSquare Alerts list.
