School buses and transportation
 |
- The District employs a fleet of 78-passenger Blue Bird Puller style buses, as well as ten "short" buses and five, eight-passenger vans. The District runs on a 100,000-mile or 10-year rotation of buses, and will generally buy five new buses per year, in accordance with the budget.
- Every month, all of the buses are inspected by the New York State Department of Transportation.
- The District employs four bus mechanics, one of which serves as the head mechanic. Each mechanic will service and performs inspections on the buses. The largest job so far that has been done in house has been a complete rebuild of five international 3800's diesel engines.
- The Transportation Building houses five bays, two of which are equipped with lifts for large passenger bus, and another with a lift for small buses and vans. Two mechanics work mostly on the large buses, while one will work on the smaller vehicles. The fourth is responsible for hiring, book keeping, parts inventory and daily driver report filling.
