privatized bus service could save more than $2 million im for it!

Thats the first year. A few years down the road it will start costing more. Once a school gets rid of the busses it can never go back. The private bus service knows this. The first years savings is just to get the contract. After that they can almost charge what ever they want as the school having gotten rid of the busses can never afford to buy them back.

Apparently saving money is more important than safety! And the company sees profit over safety!

Of course the Union is against this. Our school has used a private bus service for many years and the have provided an excellent service to the community. Love how the Union is going for scare tactics to make a point.

“According to the SEIU Local 284, research shows privatizing school busing leads to lower quality of service and accountability problems.”

What research? Did they poll the members of their union?

Terrible reporting when you quote an obviously biased source and then don’t follow it any further.

Crush the unions at every chance

Glad some of you see this as an opportunity to vent your political agenda. Without unions we would all be working 80 hours a week for minimum wage with no health insurance, we would have a life expectancy most likely 20 years younger.

If you choose to have childer (and that IS a choice) you should be expected to care for them and not expect society to take that burden off of you. I would love to see parents having to pay for schooling AND donate time to their schools. I have yet to find anywhere in the Constitution where it say free school. (I may be wrong on that, and would like to find the section so then I can shut my mouth on that…LOL). Parents…if you have kids, then learn to deal with the idea of giving up things YOU want, in order for your kids to get to school on time!!

According to the district, moving to privatized bus service could save more than $2 million in operating costs the first year……Say goodbye to Union drivers!

A report by the SEIU ? If the drivers support the SEIU, ask the SEIU to not collect dues and the drivers keep more money. Contracting school bus transportation is one example of how towns can lower their cost and receive safe service. Capital is important, paying taxes is important. Our schools need to reduce non educational costs. I applaud the board for trying to find ways to improve education in the classroom and stop the un necessary added expense of running our our fleet.

I have learn some just right stuff here. Definitely value bookmarking for revisiting. I wonder how so much attempt you put to create one of these fantastic informative website.
