Black Mountain Elementary School Preparing students for the global stage

Black Mountain Families,

We are excited to announce that a new app will soon be available for you to use, Edulog Parent Portal. This is a unique app that can be downloaded to your smart device by going to the google or apple store. This app is free and will allow you to track your student’s bus. Although this will eventually be available to ALL of the CCUSD bus riders, Desert Willow, Horseshoe Trails, Desert Sun Academy and Black Mountain students are currently the only ones that will be able to access the parent portal. Please start your process by updating your annual elements in PowerSchool, the student information system and select YES for bus ridership. Then, download the Edulog Parent Portal app and follow the simple instructions. Once the app goes live (apx week of April 3rd), you will receive a push notification letting you know. This option is only available to our students who ride the bus. A step by step video on how to use the app can be found on the Black Mountain webpage or by scanning this QR code.

If you should have any questions you can call the transportation office at

480)575-2080 or please email pnelson@ccusd93.net.
