MPS Families –

As we prepare for the new school year, we want to share an important update regarding student transportation. Since the end of last school year, our district has experienced a significant shortage of bus drivers. We are currently down seven (7) drivers despite ongoing recruitment efforts.

Unfortunately, this shortage has made it necessary to adjust our transportation services. Beginning with the start of the 2025–26 school year, we have eliminated two (2) elementary bus routes across the district.

To check your student’s current stop and route information, log in or register online at https://myridek12.tylerapp.com or download the My Ride K-12 app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Please reference the Parent User Guide here: https://www.muskogeeps.org/page/transportation. If you are the parent of multiple children enrolled at MPS, all routes will be shown regardless of which student ID you use.

If no route information is available, it may be because your child lives within 0.5 miles of their school (and transportation is not provided) or a change of address is needed. In these cases, please contact the Transportation Department at 918-684-3730.

We understand these changes may create challenges for some families and appreciate your patience as we work to restore routes when staffing allows. If you or someone you know is interested in becoming a bus driver for MPS, please visit our website or contact our Transportation Office for more information.

*** Please note: The following stops affect only elementary students. Secondary students will still be picked up at these locations.***

Attention All Students, Parents, and Staff: From June 28 through July 6, all District Athletic facilities will be off limits to students entering grades 6-12 due to the OSSAA Dead Week. During this time, there can be no contact between Coaches and Students, and no use of District athletic venues for athletic instruction, training, or participation. Coaches are allowed to perform maintenance tasks such as cleaning storage areas, mowing fields, and office work during this period. However, all athletic facilities will be completely off limits to all 6th-12th grade students to avoid negatively affecting eligibility for both Coaches and Students. Thank you for your cooperation!
