Transportation Services

The Twin Falls School District serves a 97 square mile area in Twin Falls County. The school district contracts with an outside company to provide transportation services to students who qualify for this service. Generally, students who live more than 1.5 miles from their school are eligible to ride the bus. In addition, the TFSD provides safety bussing for students who would have to cross busy or unsafe streets (as defined by Idaho Code) in order to reach their school.

Please register for bus service if you plan to have your student ride the bus during the 2023-24 school year BY JULY 26  in oder to have routing for the first day of school.

Bus Routes

We are pleased to be able to provide you with our new Traversa Ride 360 app.  Traversa Ride 360 provides secure access to student bus routing information.

You can download the Traversa Ride 360 app from the Apple App store or the Google Play store for free.  When you download the app, you will need to select the Twin Falls School District.  The Ride 360 app requires two pieces of information to connect to your student, your student’s ID number and your student’s school of attendance, both of which can be found in PowerSchool.

If you need assistance accessing this information in PowerSchool, please contact your students’ school.
