Foudation For Education Reform

Foundation for Education Reform and Accountability Statement on New York Winning Federal Race to the Top Funding for Proposed Education Reforms Education Commissioner David Steiner and the Board of Regents deserve a great deal of praise for their work on New York's strong Race to the Top plan, which increased the number of public charter schools and proposes a strong set of reforms that seek to raise academic standards, improve teacher preparation, instruction and evaluation and turn around the state's chronically failing schools. While today's announcement is welcome news and all New Yorkers should be hopeful that these reforms bring about necessary improvements in our educational system, similar efforts have been made in the past and delivered mixed results. In order for these reforms to have a serious chance of improving student achievement over the long haul, superintendents, school boards, teachers unions, and the like will need to abandon the status quo and work together at the local level to put new programs in place that deliver results. Dismal graduation rates and weak results on the most recent state English language arts and math exams have shown that New York has a long way to go before it provides all students with the high-quality education that they deserve. Today's announcement is a good first step in moving forward with funding for a coherent strategy to turn around our struggling education system.

About NYAPT and School Transportation NYAPT is a membership-based professional association incorporated in 1974 as a 501-c-6 non-profit corporation. Our members are employed in school districts, BOCES, community and technical colleges, private school bus operators and community-based programs. Our members come from many levels within the school bus industry, including supervisors and managers, mechanics and technicians, trainers and safety specialists, and dispatchers. Our Board of Directors is comprised of six officers and directors from each of our twenty chapters who come from all corners of the state. Our association operates through a series of program and ad hoc committees and presents a full slate of programs and offerings for our members each year. Our chapters are engaged in a variety of learning and advocacy activities in their local communities. The school transportation industry in New York State can be profiled with the following information: there are more than 50, 000 school buses in our state ; there are approximately 54, 000 school bus drivers in our state ; school buses transport over 2.3 million children to and from school each day ; all of our student passengers combined will get onto or down from a school bus 1, 656, 000, 000 times in the average school year. Our school bus drivers are trained through a long-standing system of School Bus Driver Instructors who are prepared by State Education Department certified Master Instructors for such instruction and preparation. School buses are purchased in accordance with extensive specifications driven by state law and regulation. They are inspected rigorously twice annually by the State Department of Transportation for over 160 safety factors and are inspected on a pre-trip and post-trip basis every day by school bus drivers and technicians. A network of trained certified article 19 examiner assists the dept of motor vehicles in ensuring that all school bus drivers meet stringent training requirements. New Yorkers should be confident that the PROFESSIONALS in the State's school transportation industry are doing all they can to ensure the efficiency of the transportation services and the safety of those 2.3 million children who ride our school buses each day.
