The world we live in has dramatically changed since the humble beginning of school pupil transportation. The mission from the start was safe transportation for every child. Today, that mission is the same, yet the way we are able to meet the goals of safety are hampered by many factors outside of our control.
California public schools spend more than a billion dollars each year on school transportation. Without additional state funding, schools are being forced to reduce or eliminate school transportation services and/or find ways to reduce encroachment on their general fund.
These areas of concern will be highlighted at the CASTO 2008 School Transportation Business Forum scheduled October 6-8, 2008, in South Lake Tahoe. This year's event will provide important information for Superintendents, Chief Business Officials, Senior Transportation Managers and others responsible for managing school transportation in today's challenging environment.
CASTO is also please to invite Exhibitors to be part of the Business Forum. An Exhibitors Show and Reception is scheduled for Monday, October 6, 2008, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Harrah's in South lake Tahoe, the meeting site for the forum. We look forward to seeing you in Lake Tahoe..
