The KCS App
While the website is built for comprehensive information, the KCS app is designed for quick, on-the-go access. Available for free by searching Kanawha County Schools in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. The app makes it easy to stay up-to-date with the information you use most often.

The EZ A2B School Bus Tracking App
For parents who want to know where their child’s bus is in real time, Kanawha County Schools uses the EZ A2B app. This free app allows you to track your student’s bus location and estimated arrival times. The app also sends an alert if your student's bus is running behind schedule.
Parents can download the EZ A2B app in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store by searching for “EZ Routing – EZ A2B”. Once downloaded, families will receive secure access to their child’s route and can set up notifications to know when the bus is getting close.
