Transportation & Equipment
Transporting students to and from school in a safe and cost-effective manner helps to support on-time delivery, meet enrollment needs/instructional program requirements, and controls fleet maintenance costs. Capital Plan 2022 sets funds aside for vehicle and equipment purchases in the following areas:
- School bus vehicle replacement (purchase an average of 70 units per year)
- Support fleet vehicle replacement
- Fleet shop maintenance equipment replacement
- Bus passenger safety enhancements
- Purchase Wi-Fi hardware
- Automated fuel management system
In addition, new styles of learning require new and flexible furnishings. As a part of our Capital Plan 2022, we set aside a large portion of dollars to go towards:
- Purchase and install furniture and equipment to enhance and/or refresh items located at existing schools and new construction as needed
- Support options for flexible classroom furniture as replacement occurs
