Director of Business Development at First Student 🚌 | Driving Safety, Innovation, and Exceptional Service in School Transportation 🚌 | Empowering Students to Achieve Their Full Potential
🚍 **Safety First: A Holistic Approach to School Transportation** School buses are more than just vehicles; they’re extensions of the classroom, with drivers balancing the safety of students and their own safety behind the wheel. At KIPP Texas, our First Student location is addressing this challenge head-on by integrating innovative technologies and strong partnerships. From GPS and stop-arm cameras to advanced radio communication and behavioral management programs, we’re committed to providing drivers with the tools and support they need. As Cynthia Rubio from KIPP Texas Public Schools emphasizes, "Combining safety and care is our mindset." At First Student, we’re proud to partner with forward-thinking organizations like KIPP Texas, leveraging tech solutions and robust training to ensure safe, efficient student transportation. **Hit ❤️ if you knew First Student offered student behavior management programs for transportation, and drop a comment if this is new to you!** Read more about how we’re improving transportation safety: https://lnkd.in/gqZEVnVu #SchoolTransportation #SafetyFirst #KIPPtexas #StudentSafety #FirstStudent #Innovation #EdTech

On Friday, our team had an incredible experience at the AI Bootcamp hosted by NKU's BizAccessHub! This all-day event was designed to harness the power of artificial intelligence. The highlight for me was interactive learning - we engaged in hands-on demonstrations and participated in breakout sessions that provided practical insights into AI applications. A big thank you to NKU for organizing such a transformative event! And a special thanks to our coach Whitney L. Barkley, M.S. 💻🎤✍🏾 #TeamBuilding #AIBootcamp #NKU #Innovation #ArtificialIntelligence

This week, First Student kicked off the Safety Dog Bus Tour with an event at Musselman Learning Center, part of NORRISTOWN AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT. Safety Dog and his friends visited with 13 kindergarten classes and taught them how to be the “doggone” best bus riders. The kids had a blast meeting Safety Dog, posing for pictures, telling us why they love the bus 💛 🚌 and their drivers, and completing Safety Dog puzzles. 🐶🧩 It was a great opportunity to promote safety and fun on the bus and to strengthen our relationship with the district. Best dressed award goes to our Plymouth Meeting Location Manager Matt Pokorny 🙌 🌺 👔 . #focusonsafety #caringforstudents #exceedingcustomerexpectations
