Our 100+ Year History
Durham School Services can trace its history back to 1917, to a three-bus company started in the San Gabriel Valley of California. In its early years, Durham specialized in special education transportation. This specialization has helped to nurture a unique commitment to quality service that is still maintained throughout our company today.
Today, Durham operates more than 14,400 school buses and serves more than 340 school districts in 32 states across the country. Durham is part of the National Express School division, which has a strong record of success and decades of experience in pupil transportation.
