Every child.
The right car.
Calm and on time.
BellFlo runs the car line and the buses for the staff outside. Scan the car tag, the board calls the names, and every car leaves in its batch, while the office sees it all live.

Three steps at every pickup zone
The same screens on a phone in the car line, a tablet at the door and a big display for the announcer.
- 1
Scan the car tag
As each car pulls up, a staff member scans the QR car tag on the dashboard. The scanner catches the wrong pickup zone, holds and children already gone.
- 2
Call the names
Each car gets a batch and a cone. The announcer board shows the names on a big screen and reads them aloud with the device's own voice.
- 3
Release the batch
Children go to their car at its cone, the announcer releases the batch and the next one loads. Every pickup is recorded.
Everything dismissal needs, in one place
From the first car in line to the last bus out, and the record of every child who left.
Car line
Several pickup zones, lanes and cones. Late cars, children who aren't in the car and cars at the wrong zone are handled right on the scanner.
Buses
Call buses from a holding area or at the buses, or let teachers release riders from the classroom. Board by tap, student ID badge or bus tag.
Do not release — see office
Hold a child for the day. The hold shows on the scanner and the board, and the voice never calls a held child.
Way-home changes
One day, a date range or certain weekdays: by car, another bus, walking or absent. Every screen shows today's plan.
Names read aloud
The board speaks each name with the device's own voice, with a pronunciation the office can set for any child.
Live boards
Big-screen boards for the announcer and the bus holding area, updated live as cars and buses arrive.
Car tags and bus tags
Print car tags and stickers from the student list. A lost tag is reissued in a click, and the old one stops working.
Records and trends
Pickup history by child or tag number, a timing report for each day, and trends over weeks. Everything exports to CSV.
Support built in
Staff and the office ask for help from inside the app, with screenshots, and track every request.
Built for the way dismissal really works
Every school runs it a little differently, so every flow is a setting, not a rule.
Works with the district's systems
Staff use the accounts they already have, and the student list stays current on its own.
District sign-in
Staff sign in with their district account once a day on each device, then use a 6-digit PIN for the rest of the day.

Student information system

Student privacy, built in
Schools stay in control of their information. We use it only to run dismissal for the school, and never sell it or use it for advertising.
Frequently asked questions
Who is BellFlo for?
Schools that run a car line, buses or both at the end of the day: front-office staff, the people outside with the scanners, the announcer and teachers. Districts can see every school's dismissal times and exceptions in one place.
Do parents need an app?
No. Families keep a printed QR car tag on the dashboard. With the optional Family notifications add-on, parents can also get messages by app or email.
Do staff need the phone app?
The staff app runs on iPhone, iPad and Android, and every screen also works in a web browser on a laptop, Chromebook or tablet.
How does the student list get in?
From the district's student information system through OneRoster or Clever, from a OneRoster file, or from a spreadsheet. Each car tag stays with its child from year to year.
What if a phone dies or the network drops?
One device never blocks dismissal: any other phone, tablet or laptop can carry on. For buses, the printed bus lists are the paper fallback.
How is student information protected?
We keep only what dismissal needs, the school chooses how long history is kept, and we act as a school official under FERPA. We sign the district's data privacy agreement. See the privacy policy for the details.
Can we try it first?
Yes. We start with a short demo using your pickup zones, then a trial with staff cars and practice data, before any real student information is used.
Ready for a calmer dismissal?
See it with your own pickup zones, then try it with staff cars and practice data.
