All MCSD school buses are equipped with a digital ridership platform that allows bus operators to know exactly which students have entered or exited the bus and when. In addition to playing a significant role in our overall safety plan, the ridership system allows us to perform contact tracing required by the Florida Department of Health with precision.
CBS 12 News' Kara Duffy CBS12 spoke with Frank Frangella, Director of Safety and Security, about what families can expect in the upcoming school year: https://cbs12.com/news/local/martin-county-school-district-using-bus-software-system-to-help-with-contact-tracing.
