Our Study Concludes: We Can Do It Better.
Pullen, Buddy; Pitts, Carroll, Jr.
School Administrator, v52 n10 p20-21 Nov 1995

Since the bus fleet is relatively new and drivers' wages compare favorably with metropolitan Atlanta's, the district concluded it could transport students better and more cheaply. A sidebar lists 11 leading school transportation firms. (MLH)
