The Safe Routes to School National Partnership will host a free web seminar to address how student transportation departments can collaborate with Safe Routes to School to help children get to school safely.

The webinar, titled “Buses, Boots, and Bicycles: Getting Safe Routes to School and Student Transportation Departments to Work Together,” will be held on Thursday, July 17, from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. Eastern.

According to Safe Routes to School, the webinar will examine how collaboration can enable children to get to school safely while supporting a comprehensive school transportation system. Speakers will discuss barriers to collaboration, strategies for overcoming those obstacles, and specific ways to work together.

The program will also showcase a school transportation department that gets kids to school by foot, bicycle, scooter, school bus and carpool.

Speakers will include:

• Michael Martin, executive director of the National Association for Pupil Transportation
• Bob Young, director of transportation at Boulder (Colo.) Valley School District
• Sara Zimmerman, technical assistance director for the Safe Routes to School National Partnership
