Bus Contracting: A Partnership That Works.
Self, Tucker L.
School Administrator, v52 n10 p18-19 Nov 1995
An Ohio superintendent's need to contain administrative costs, replace aging buses, and improve his district's financial health prompted consideration of contracting for student transportation. After 2 years of contracting out, students are safer, a $215,000 savings has been realized, the bus drivers (former district employees) are happier, and the board still oversees the transportation function.
