If you are looking at Scottsdale Arizona homes for sale and have children, chances are they will probably attend the Scottsdale Unified School District, which is an excellent school district encompassing many schools.
Education and safety go hand-in-hand, and a big part of the safety of students involves riding school buses. Utilizing an amazingly complicated set of routes and schedules, the Transportation Department at the Scottsdale Unified School District covers approximately 174 routes on a daily basis, providing over 1.6 million rides per year. The district transports students not just to and from school, but also transports Special Needs students to specialty schools, transports athletes to and from athletic events, transports band members to and from competitions, and transports all types of students on various class field trips. To accomplish this massive task, the district employs a Transportation Director and a staff of dispatchers, route schedulers and driver-trainers.
According to SUSD, the bus garage, where service and maintenance takes place, is operated by First Vehicle Services (FVS), an international general fleet service contractor. The district’s website states that it is the first school to achieve the prestigious Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) Voluntary Protection Program (VVP) “Star” status. Through their partnership with FVS, the Scottsdale Unified School District’s fleet of over 200 well-maintained buses has been recognized by the Arizona Department of Public Safety for the highest inspection scores in the state for three consecutive years. rl0z1
