Look for Our Article in Florida School Bus Magazine

 
It is hard to believe that members of Florida’s pupil transportation industry were meeting in Punta Gorda, FL only 2 months ago for the 2013 Summer Symposium. The beginning of the school year is here and everyone is busy. Remember, it is important to utilize breaks during the day!

 
Dr. Robert Kriegel recommends three, 15-minute timeouts during the day to relax, refresh, and refuel Taking Timeouts to Decrease Stress and Increase Creativity. It is okay to take a break and recharge.

 

Consider reading our article in Florida School Bus Magazine (Page 24). It discusses our online classroom curriculum for school bus drivers, and how our program can reduce your training expenses while still providing quality training for drivers and employees.

 
Contact us if we can help add an online component to your school bus driver training program.

September is Childhood Obesity Awareness Month

 
Did you know that studies show that childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and tripled in adolescents in the past 30 years?

 
Food preparation can contribute to the obesity problem. Consider online training for your food service staff. Courses include safe food handling guidelines from receipt of food to preparation and service, portion control and nutrition, ways to eliminate foodborne illness using HACCP principles (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points), and the responsibilities of professionals regarding personal hygiene and pest control.

 
A food service training package is also available for purchase as part of a nationally bid contract through AEPA.

Communication is still an issue. Hills again today and wind. The end is near and it has been a great experience.

I am going to let the experience process for a few days and do a final reflection blog. I will say that if you ever have the opportunity to participate in RAGBRAI, if even for a day, ABSOLUTELY DO IT!

RAGBRAI: Oskaloosa to Fairfield (July 26)

The time, distance, heat, hills, and wind are taking its toll on everyone. People are moody and not communicating.

During the first half of the trip everyone was very good with their calls. “Passing left, car up, car back, rider up.” These calls help keep everyone safe; communication keeps everyone safe. This simple communication makes the day go faster and the ride seem easier.

The same can be said about communication in any situation. Make an effort to communicate the small things and you will see positive results.
