Back-to-School Toolkit

Bus information is expected to be posted to Parent Portal and the My Ride K-12 in late August. There may be changes to your child's bus information, so families are strongly encouraged to check Parent Portal prior to the start of school on September 2nd. Email ICPortal@ktufsd.org for assistance. For a link to Parent Portal and information on how to sign up and access your account, please visit www.ktufsd.org/ParentPortal

A map detailing crossing guard locations in the Village of Kenmore and Town of Tonawanda has been posted here on our Maps page.

You will need your child’s 9-digit student ID number to sign up for MySchoolBucks and My Ride K-12. You can find the student ID number on any of your child’s past report cards. If you have a Parent Portal account, you can view past report cards there. If you have trouble finding your student ID number, you can also contact your child’s school.

For students in Gr. K-12, no action is needed in order to receive free breakfast/lunch each day. Although students will automatically be eligible to receive free meals, it is important to note that families will be asked to complete food service paperwork in the fall. Completing the form ensures individual eligibility for certain state and federal programs as well as additional school funding, so it is extremely important for all families to return it. You can expect to receive additional information in September.

Visit myridek12.tylerapp.com download the My Ride K-12 app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. You’ll need your child’s nine-digit student ID and birthdate to create an account. You can add your child now, but bus information will appear once routes are finalized. Visit www.ktufsd.org/MyRideK12 for more information.

The following students are eligible for bus transportation: Elementary school students (Grades K-4) who live 0.5 miles or more from school, middle school students (Grades 5-7) who live 0.75 miles or more from school, and high school students (Grades 8-12) who live 1.0 miles or more from school.
