6.4. Transportation (Bus Routes) vs. Mileage Reimbursement to rural families
Rationale:
Bus Route vs. Paying Rural Families for Transportation Scenarios for transporting students:
2011 -2013 used yellow bus with 60 – 71 capacity will cost us $50,000 - $60,000. Lower miles 30,000 to 45,000 miles. It is cheaper to provide transportation for families over paying for them to travel to school but not by much. A newer route bus will need to be purchased if we continue transporting students. In the future we will need to send some buses to the “bone yard” and rotate some of our better buses out. I don’t want to keep them until they die like we have in the past. |
