“NSTA is pleased to be able to continue its sequence of live meetings in 2022, and this resumes with our 2022 NSTA Fall Conference,” said Curt Macysyn, the organization’s executive director. “Our panel sessions will focus on issues facing school bus operators today, including the driver shortage, electric school buses, and the latest technologies on the market.
“We are especially excited for our inaugural ‘Don’t Talk Politics at Dinner’ Dinner,” which highlights the election results on Nov. 9, he said.
