Please sign into your Trip Tracker household account and REPORT all trips for MARCH 2019 to receive an earned reward of Tracker Bucks! The next reward distribution is at the end of the month or early next month.

Note: The two (2) SVVSD snow days that occurred in March have been accounted for within the trip reporting form, therefore the max numbers of trips is now 28 trips/14 days for March, instead of the original 32 trips/16 days.

Key Reminders

Each school year:

  • Program Registration/Re-Registration starts in August and is open through April. The Trip Tracker Program & your school will let you know when it is time to do so.
  • Actual Trip Tracking starts the first school day in September and ends the last school day in April. August is for registration only, since schools and grades start on different days, therefore is isn't a month trips are tracked or reported for.
  • Trips are tracked at home for one month at a time. Use any tracking tool you prefer. The Trip Tracker Program provides optional Tracking Calendars that are available online starting for September.  
  • Trip Reporting (online) is done the first week of school, after each tracked month (repeats October through May).
  • Log into your Trip Tracker account to report trips during each school month's week long reporting period OR anytime to see your prior activity & results.
  • If you can't recall if you have reported already or not, just log in to your account and see if you have any trip listed for that reporting period. If none yet, go ahead and report.
  • Earned Tracker Buck rewards can be spent only at locally-owned Businesses participating in Trip Tracker - a new Trip Tracker Business List is available starting each September and is always available/current on the Trip Tracker website.
  • Remember that some Trip Tracker Businesses have spending limits, so check the Trip Tracker Businesses List before you go spend, if that is helpful to you.
  • Please update your address in your account if you move during the school year.
  • Participants can have two household accounts, if parents/caregivers live apart.
