Driven By Safety™
Did you know that riding a bus is the safest way for children to get to and from school? It’s 12 times safer than riding to school in a car and 10 times safer than walking.*
There is nothing more important to us than safety, one of our core values. Our safety program is comprehensive, from hiring and employee recognition to daily protocols and procedures, in order to ensure all students are safe at all times when in our care.
An effective safety program must encompass all aspects of transportation, including operations, training, maintenance, and administration, while remaining focused on people, students, employees and the public. Our number one responsibility is to protect against harm and to give our customers the confidence that we will provide safe and reliable service every day.

Special Needs Service
School transportation is unique to each student with special needs, and our company has a long history of partnering with districts for special needs transportation services because of the unique requirements. In 1958, Stock Transportation was founded by brothers Jeff and Jerry Stock in Bailieboro, Ontario and their sons continued to build upon the original foundation. This family-owned and operated company has provided transportation services to students and charter passengers throughout Canada and the United States for more than 100 years. Many of the National Express School brands started their companies in the same way, by providing busing to students with special needs. This specialization has helped us to nurture a unique commitment to quality service that remains throughout our company.
