Our innovative Safety Program includes:

		Hiring for Safety: Candidates must pass a motor vehicle check, criminal background check, reference check, employee safety inventory, drug and alcohol screen, and a structured interview before even being considered for training;
		Training for Safety: By exceeding both state and Federal mandates for school bus driver training in every state in which we operate, we ensure that each driver is the best trained, best qualified they can be;
		Annual Driving Evaluations for all drivers;
		A Safety Committee at each location that works to improve safety performance;
		Reward and recognition programs for accident- and injury-free performance; and
		Comprehensive safety training for K-3 students.
