In collaboration with our transportation partner, First Student, the Little Compton School Department is launching FirstView®, a real-time GPS vehicle tracking and student transportation monitoring platform. Directions for downloading and launching the app can be found here. Please contact the Main Office for our 5-character district code. With FirstView, parents and caregivers can download the secure, easy-to-use vehicle tracking mobile app that will allow you to stay easily connected with your student(s) daily trips.  

  • See the real-time vehicle location via GPS and track its progress.

  • Easy access to vehicle details as well as updates regarding any changes.

  • Receive multiple distanced-based ETA notifications when the vehicle is getting close.

  • Set-up family members and caregivers to receive trip email alerts.

  • Dedicated customer support team for all app-related questions.

In addition, general questions regarding routes and other transportation matters can be directed to our local First Student Depot: (401) 625-5562. We hope this app is a useful addition to our district’s transportation services.
