I think we’re using more than 14 this year under our arrangement with DeKalb County Schools. So it will be interesting to see how this plays out. Hopefully staff skilled with routing and communication with families will be involved.

While they are at it, maybe they can outsource and create a competitive program for creating/scheduling the bus routes

Seems cost netural but better for us to have our own than lease from DeKalb school system & their current troubles

The notes in the agenda said it was about the same or maybe some savings.

I’d be interested to know whether this is a net cost saving for the district.
