The Office of Head Start (OHS) created the Head Start Transportation Group to facilitate information sharing around safe bus and transportation policies and procedures. Please share this invitation with anyone in your program who may in interested in joining the group. The resources will be especially beneficial to transportation staff and program leaders.
In August 2014, many program directors and transportation managers participated in A Conversation with Acting Director Ann Linehan about Transportation Safety. OHS has answered many of the questions that were submitted during and after the webinar, including those around bus monitors, age and weight appropriate child restraints, lifetime of buses, and duration of bus routes. Review the Transportation Q&A now on the Early Childhood Learning and Knowledge Center (ECLKC).
OHS will continue to provide answers to your questions around transportation. We’ll also share strategies, tips, and promising practices. Send your questions, concerns, and helpful advice to HeadStartTransportation@hsicc.org.
Thank you for helping keep our children safe in and around buses!
