Addressing Past Challenges, Committing to Future Excellence

At Saint Louis Public Schools, we recognize the critical importance of providing safe and reliable transportation for our students. We acknowledge that in the past, our transportation services have faced challenges that affected our overall performance. Specifically, we reached 55% of students on average, consistently arrived on time 89% of the time, and ensured timely performance 89% of the time. These numbers, while not ideal, highlight areas where we must improve.

Our Commitment to Excellence

We are dedicated to turning these numbers around. Our goal is clear: to reach 100% of our students, 100% of the time, and to ensure 100% on-time performance.

How We Plan to Achieve This (Will be replaced by our Talking Points)

• Recruitment and Training: We are working with our transportation partners to intensify efforts to recruit and retain qualified bus drivers, ensuring that partners provide comprehensive training to meet the demands of the job.
• Optimizing Routes: We are reviewing and optimizing our bus routes to make them more efficient, reducing travel times and improving punctuality.
• Enhancing Communication: We are improving our communication systems to provide real-time updates to parents, students, and staff about bus schedules and any potential delays.
• Investing in Technology: We are investing in advanced technology to better manage our transportation services and monitor performance in real-time.

Our Promise

We promise to ensure safe and reliable transportation for all our students. By setting ambitious yet attainable goals, we are committed to achieving excellence in our transportation services. We believe that every student deserves a smooth, safe, and timely journey to and from school.
