TRANSPORTATION

At Western School Corporation, student transportation is a team effort. Our drivers, mechanics, staff, administrators, and parents all work together to ensure students travel safely and on time.

All drivers are CDL licensed, CPR/AED certified, and receive annual safety training. Buses are inspected daily before departure, maintained regularly, and undergo a full Indiana State Police inspection each winter. We take pride in the safety and reliability of our fleet.
