FortifyFL

/ , ,

FortifyFL is a mobile app and web-based tool that allows students, parents, and community members in Florida to anonymously report suspicious activities, potential threats, or safety concerns related to schools. The website and the app immediately forwards these reports to appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials for rapid response. It was developed as part of Florida’s school safety initiatives following the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School tragedy in 2018.

In response to a high volume of false tips being submitted through FortifyFL, the Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) requires school districts to provide instruction on the Proper Use of FortifyFL to parents and guardians.

SJCSD Launches BusPlanner & Chipmunk for Student Bus Info

/ ,

St. Johns County School District is excited to introduce BusPlanner, a new online transportation portal designed to give parents easy access to their students’ bus information. Beginning with the 2025-2026 school year, all student pick-up and drop-off times and locations will be provided exclusively through BusPlanner and will no longer be available on Home Access Center (HAC). Parents can access BusPlanner through its web portal at https://sjcsd.mybusplanner.com or by downloading the companion mobile app, Chipmunk, available for Android and Apple devices.

BusPlanner will also enhance communication by providing timely updates about bus delays and other important transportation-related notifications. In addition, parents can use the system to send messages directly to the SJCSD Transportation Department.

To get started, families should create an account on the BusPlanner website or on the Chipmunk app using the same email address associated with their Home Access Center (HAC) account. SJCSD encourages all families with bus riders to register early and stay informed ahead of the upcoming school year.
