      since I became Transportation Supervisor."

Now in our 8th year!  Legal Routes™ is a publication that explains pupil transportation law and compliance issues in clear, concise and readable language is available for school transportation professionals and school business officials.

...AND, introducing our New Direction...
As we turn the corner to 2010 and our 8th year of publication, we are introducing a finer focus on the role of school transportation in the total education process. There are many participants in that process, many perspectives, and much to learn from each other.

We've broaden our approach to legal coverage to bring in additional practical information about best practices that align well with the cases we've reported during the last seven years, and cases we'll be analyzing going forward. And, we'll include articles written fro™m the point of view of such stakeholders as school administrators, school district officials, drivers and attendants, driver trainers, parents and contractors.

Shortly on this web site, we'll offer you an opportunity to download our January 2010 issue and see why we say -- Legal Routes™ is "more than you know."
