Each day, 480,000 school buses carry 25 million school children to and from school – That’s HALF of America’s school children. For every single school bus on the road, it takes approximately 36 cars off the daily commute, helping lower carbon monoxide in the atmosphere. The students they transport are the future of our society, that’s important to remember. The Student Transportation industry is one of our most important systems in education.
