Student Transportation Services of Thunder Bay is proud to announce an all new, much more user-friendly experience for our Parent Portal and Eligibility Search Tools on our ststb.ca website!
Create a secure account in the Parent Portal, then add all your students to your account to access their transportation details under a single log-in. After you’ve added a student to your profile with their OEN and date of birth to your account, you will no longer have to enter those details again, and if you have more than one student you will no longer have to log in individually for each child each time to look at their transportation details. They will now all be listed in one place under your account. Students can be linked to multiple user accounts, meaning parents, guardians, students can all create their own accounts accessing the same student busing details.
More information on the new Parent Portal can be found here.
Our Eligibility Search feature has been separated into two useful tools. ‘Which School do I Attend?’ searches for the school zoned for the address, school board, grade, and program entered and displays contact details and a zone map for that school. ‘Can I Ride a Bus?’ searches for the school bus transportation eligibility for the address, school board, grade, and program entered and returns the results for the school your zoned for, including a map showing your address in relation to the school. If you are within the walk zone, the map will display the shortest walk path to the school.
This new user experience is a culmination of the efforts of the entire STSTB team working alongside our new routing software provider, BusPlanner, a Canadian owned and operated software company providing school bus routing software solutions across North America over the past 40 years. We hope you’ll enjoy your experience when interacting with these improvements and we welcome your feedback through the Contact link at the bottom the featured pages or email us at info@ststb.ca
