About
In alignment with the Westbury Union Free School District's mission and vision, the Department of Transportation provides safe and reliable school bus transportaion to all eligible scholars of the Westbury Union Free School District.
The Westbury Union Free School District Board of Education will provide transportation to public and non-public school students who reside within designated distances from the school they attend in accordance with the applicable section of the Education Law and rulings of the Commissioner of Education.
Transportation will be provided as follows:
- For pupils in Kindergarten, who live zero miles or more from the school they attend.
- For pupils in Grades 1-5, who live at least one half of a mile, or more, from the school they attend.
- For pupils in Grades 6-12, who live at least one mile, or more, from the school they attend.
Students must meet these requirements to be approved for district transportation. Distances from all homes in the district to all schools serving those homes have been calculated. It is the distances that determine eligibility. School bus transportation is provided to students that meet the mileage requirements. Buses will stop for pick-up and drop-off of passengers based on area. All students in the area shall walk to the spot designated on their Bus Pass for pick-up.
The Transportation Department or a designee shall determine bus stops and shall designate the specific bus to be taken by the student to and from school, and the pupil shall have no authority to ride any other bus.
Should you wish the Transportation Department to review a student’s bus stop assignment; please complete the
BUS STOP REVIEW FORM (ENG), (SPA), (CRE).
Where a request for transportation is based on a medical condition, consideration is based on the nature and severity of the medical concern. Parents seeking a medical bus pass should apply to the school nurse at the school which the student attends.

Click here to view guide - ENG
Westbury School District is pleased to continue offering FirstView, our bus tracking and parent communications app, now upgraded to FirstView 1.0. In partnership with our transportation provider, First Student, this updated version will continue to serve all of our scholars (Pre-K–12) and their families, providing enhanced tools for tracking and communication via smartphone or desktop.
Below are some of the key features of the app:
-
Live Tracking
The FirstView map screen shows you the location and direction of your child’s bus, for both morning and afternoon trips. FirstView also provides caregivers with confirmation when the trip is complete.
-
Customizable Bus Proximity Notifications
With FirstView, you may set up a geofence around your location and will be alerted when the bus enters the geofence. The geofence size and alert times are customizable, so parents are in control of their notifications. Scholars should still be at their assigned bus stop 10 minutes prior to the scheduled arrival time.
-
Custom Alerts and Messages
Set up push or email notifications alerting you when your child's bus enters the geofence. Connect up to three additional email accounts (including your own) to receive email alerts. This is a great feature for grandparents and/or caregivers.
-
Multi-Stop View
For families with multiple children, buses for all your children can be tracked with FirstView. Using individual colors for each child, the bus assigned to each child’s route appears on the map in the same color as the child for easy viewing.
-
Secure and Easy Access
FirstView requires a password-protected account for app set-up. This way, only you can view your child(ren)’s stop. These codes will be provided by your district/school.

HAGA CLIC AQUI PARA VER LA GUIA - SPA
El Distrito Escolar de Westbury se complace en continuar ofreciendo FirstView, nuestra aplicación de rastreo de autobuses y comunicación con los padres, ahora actualizada a FirstView 1.0. En colaboración con nuestro proveedor de transporte, First Student, esta versión mejorada seguirá sirviendo a todos nuestros estudiantes (de Pre-Kínder a 12º grado) y a sus familias, ofreciendo herramientas mejoradas para el rastreo y la comunicación, ya sea desde un teléfono inteligente o computadora de escritorio.
A continuación, algunas de las funciones clave de la aplicación:
Rastreo en Vivo
La pantalla del mapa de FirstView muestra la ubicación y dirección del autobús de su hijo(a), tanto para los viajes de la mañana como de la tarde. FirstView también brinda confirmación a los cuidadores cuando el viaje se ha completado.
Notificaciones Personalizadas de Proximidad del Autobús
Con FirstView, puede configurar una geovalla alrededor de su ubicación y recibirá alertas cuando el autobús entre en esa área. El tamaño de la geovalla y los horarios de las alertas son personalizables, lo que permite a los padres tener el control de sus notificaciones. Los estudiantes deben estar en su parada asignada 10 minutos antes del horario programado de llegada.
Alertas y Mensajes Personalizados
Configure notificaciones push o por correo electrónico que le avisen cuando el autobús de su hijo(a) entre en la geovalla. Puede conectar hasta tres cuentas de correo electrónico adicionales (incluyendo la suya) para recibir las alertas. Esta es una excelente función para abuelos y/o cuidadores.
Vista de Múltiples Paradas
Para familias con varios hijos, FirstView permite rastrear los autobuses de todos los niños. Usando colores individuales para cada uno, el autobús asignado a la ruta de cada estudiante aparecerá en el mapa con el mismo color del estudiante, facilitando la visualización.
Acceso Seguro y Sencillo
FirstView requiere una cuenta protegida por contraseña para configurar la aplicación. De este modo, solo usted podrá ver la parada de su(s) hijo(s). Estos códigos serán proporcionados por su distrito o escuela.

NOUVO VÈSYON FIRSTVIEW 1.0 DISPONIB KOUNYE A POU TELECHAJE NAN MAGAZEN APLIKASYON OU CHWAZI A.
KLIKE ISIT POU W GADE GID LA – HC
Distrik Lekòl Westbury kontan kontinye ofri FirstView, aplikasyon pou swiv bis ak kominike ak paran yo, ki kounye a mete ajou ak vèsyon FirstView 1.0. An kolaborasyon ak founisè transpò nou an, First Student, nouvo vèsyon sa a ap kontinye sèvi tout elèv nou yo (soti nan Pre-K rive nan 12yèm ane) ansanm ak fanmi yo, epi l ap ofri zouti amelyore pou swiv ak kominike, kit ou sèvi ak yon telefòn entelijan oswa yon òdinatè biwo.
Men kèk nan prensipal fonksyon aplikasyon an:
Swivi An Dirèk
Katravès FirstView la montre kote ak direksyon bis pitit ou a, pou vwayaj maten ak apremidi yo. FirstView ba ou tou konfimasyon lè vwayaj la fini pou moun k ap pran swen timoun nan.
Alèt Pèsonalize sou Pwoksimite Bis la
Avèk FirstView, ou ka mete yon baryè jeyografik (geofence) alantou kote ou ye a, epi ou pral resevwa alèt lè bis la antre nan zòn sa a. Ou ka ajiste gwosè baryè a ak lè ou vle resevwa alèt yo. Sa pèmèt paran yo kontwole notifikasyon yo. Timoun yo dwe rive nan kanpe yo omwen 10 minit anvan lè yo pwograme pou bis la rive.
Alèt ak Mesaj Pèsonalize
Mete notifikasyon push oswa imel pou avèti w lè bis pitit ou a antre nan baryè a. Ou ka konekte jiska twa kont imel anplis (pami yo ka gen pa w la) pou resevwa alèt yo. Fonksyon sa a trè itil pou granparan ak/oswa moun k ap pran swen yo.
Vizyalizasyon Plizyè Kanpe
Pou fanmi ki gen plizyè timoun, FirstView pèmèt ou swiv bis chak timoun. Chak elèv gen yon koulè diferan, epi bis ki chaje sou wout li a ap parèt sou kat la ak koulè elèv sa a, sa ki fè li pi fasil pou w idantifye.
Aksè Senp ak Sekirize
FirstView mande yon kont ak modpas pou mete aplikasyon an. Konsa, se sèlman ou menm ki kapab wè kanpe pitit ou yo. Distrik oswa lekòl ou a ap bay kòd sa yo.
Sipò Kliyan Dedye
Nou la pou ede w. Kit ou gen difikilte pou kòmanse ak FirstView, ou pa wè bon done yo, oswa ou gen yon lide pou amelyore aplikasyon an, nou vle tande ou.
