SMART Tag
SMART Tag system offers a free tool for parents to monitor when their student boards and exits the school bus as well as track any delays. We use this system to keep track of all Snoqualmie Valley student riders during loading/unloading and at bus locations. It's an excellent tool for making sure everyone is on the right bus and exiting at the correct stop.
Here's How It Works:

STUDENT RIDERS: Every student who rides a school bus will be issued a SMART Tag Bus Badge with their unique number on the embedded RFID chip. When they enter or disembark the school bus, they wave their card past the SMART Tag card reader to log on and off the bus. Please ensure your student has their SMART Tag whenever riding the bus.
At the beginning of the school year:
- Returning students should continue to use the SMART Tag that was issued to them.
- New riders and Kindergarten students will be issued new SMART Tags.
- If your student lost or misplaced their assigned SMART Tag, request a replacement SMART Tag via our online form.
PARENTS/GUARDIANS: To get started with the SMART Tag Parent Portal, first download the SMART Tag Parent App from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Then, log into the portal using your student's seven-digit student ID number (you may need to add a zero in front of it). You can find your student’s ID number in Skyward Family Access by clicking on "Student Info" in the left-hand menu. The number is listed as "Other ID" and will be used for your first login.
We take the safe transportation of your student seriously and believe these safety features greatly enhance the safety and security of our students, and the efficiency of our service.
