SEARCHSBF calls for candidates for the annual Contractor of the Year award. Nominees should be people who have made significant contributions to pupil transportation at their own operations as well as through industry associations.
Do you know an exemplary school bus contractor who deserves some recognition for his or her efforts? If so, SBF wants to hear from you.
We’re in the process of selecting a recipient for our annual Contractor of the Year award, and we’re accepting nominations.
Each year, we look for candidates who have made significant contributions to pupil transportation through their own operations as well as through industry associations.
Last year’s winner was Tim Flood, executive vice president at The Trans Group and a key contributor to industry groups like the New York School Bus Contractors Association and the National School Transportation Association.
Nominations can be sent to us at info@schoolbusfleet.com. Tell us about the person’s efforts, and give us contact information for him or her.
