Trip Tracker Participation Steps

  • If you haven't already done so year, please update your Trip Tracker account for the 2019-20 School Year.
  • Make sure each person you want to report trips this school year is added as a participant and that their school information is provided in your account before trying to report trips for them. Please update any household information and each participant's details (new address, new grade, new teacher last name, new participant, etc...)
  • You can request your login information if you've forgotten it, by clicking through this link to the Trip Tracker Registration home page.

2. TRACK TRIPS AT HOME (AS NEEDED)

  • Trips are tracked at home for one month at a time, using any tracking tool you prefer (a wall calendar, a notebook, school planner, etc...
  • The Trip Tracker Program provides optional & free Tracking Calendars that are available online starting for September, through April. They are available in English & Spanish.
  • For some, it's helpful to have daily trips tracked somehow before reporting online during each reporting period = the first week of school Oct - May.

  • November's Trip Reporting Closes: Monday, December 9th at 5p. 
    • This is the 3rd chance to report trips this school year. 
    • Reporting Periods always open at midnight the first school day of each month and close 7 days later at 5p on the final day, which ensures customer support is available while the reporting period is open.
    • Reminder: 5 One-Way Green Trips = 1 Tracker Buck = 1 Dollar at participating Trip Tracker Businesses.
    • Earn 1 Bonus Buck if 80% of trips are active (you moved your body to travel).

Your Voice Matters

Safe Routes To School Parent Survey

You still have time to complete this survey by Friday, December 6th!

Please fill out one survey/per household (not per student) using the appropriate school link below. Your school will also send home this link &/or a paper copy of the same survey, so please only submit the survey one time/per household via any version.

This survey asks for non-identifying information about what factors affect whether parents allow their children to walk or bike to school, the presence of key safety-related conditions along routes to school, and related background information. The survey results will help determine how to improve opportunities for children to walk or bike to school, and measure parental attitude changes as local SRTS programs occur.

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) and is open 24 hours/day, except the final day (always closes at 5p), to ensure customer service is always available prior to data analysis starting.
  • 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.
  • 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.
