Distance notifications for districts covered by FirstAlt are automatically created and enabled when a student is added to a district. These
notifications are automatically set up daily for the student’s trip, so there is no need to set them manually each day.
Note: The distance notifications are automatically set to 1 mile and 30 minutes before pick-up and 30 minutes before drop-off. These
settings cannot be adjusted.
