Mission Statement
The East Ramapo Central School District Transportation Department is dedicated to providing the safe, reliable, and courteous busing that all of our students, parents and schools are not only entitled to, but most certainly deserve.
The District Transportation Team consists of individuals who are prepared to handle any transportation issue, ensuring that all students in our East Ramapo community arrive to their school on time and ready to learn.
Our Contractor's team consists of highly trained management, dispatch, safety, and maintenance personnel as well as drivers and aides who are fully vetted and certified by the New York State Education Department, The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles and the State and Federal Departments of Transportation.
Both teams arrive to work long before most of us wake up and prepare to begin transporting our "most precious cargo," the students, in the most professional and safety-oriented manner possible. All while facing the daily, ever-changing road, traffic, and weather conditions.
