South Adams Schools has become the first in Indiana to implement SMART Tag technology on their school buses. This advanced technology aims to enhance student safety and efficiency in transportation.
SMART Tag technology utilizes radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to track students as they board and exit the school bus. Each student is issued a personalized card that they scan upon boarding and exiting the bus. This allows for accurate tracking of students and ensures that no child is left behind on the bus or at the wrong stop.
The system also alerts bus drivers and school officials of any potential issues or delays, further improving the safety and efficiency of student transportation. Additionally, parents can receive real-time updates on their child’s bus location and arrival times through a mobile app.
South Adams Schools Superintendent, Mr. Michael Pettibone, expressed excitement about being the first in the state to adopt this innovative technology. He emphasized that student safety is a top priority and believes that SMART Tag technology will provide an added layer of security for students riding the bus.
The implementation of SMART Tag technology is part of South Adams Schools’ ongoing commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of their students. The district continues to look for ways to utilize technology to improve operations and provide a better experience for students and families.
Parents and students can now have peace of mind knowing that South Adams Schools is leading the way in student transportation safety with the adoption of SMART Tag technology on their school buses.
