National School Bus Safety Week is October 21-25, 2013. School transportation departments are encouraged to spread the message of safety by working with local media, encouraging local businesses to offer public support, asking the school board and administrators to take action, and getting teachers and students involved.

 
There are great resources for National School Bus Safety Week available from the National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT).

October 14-18 is National School Lunch Week

 
October 14th – 18th is National School Lunch Week and is intended to promote a healthy diet and lifestyle for children. The School Nutrition Association provides excellent resources to educate and engage students. This week is also a great opportunity to make sure your food service employees have the resources to be at their best.

 
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.

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.
