| Summary: | In this report Head describes the development of bus transportation among rural schools in Montgomery County. He gives details about the purchase and maintenance of the vehicles; the participating drivers and schools; and the records kept for each bus. He ends the report with a list of positive effects of the new transportation system, such as a wider "range of acquaintance" for children from small, isolated farming communities; better opportunities for high school education; greater demand for road improvements; and increased cooperation among parents in the school districts. |
