BOSTON (WHDH) - Boston Public Schools are considering a schedule shift for school start times to help with the bus shortage.
A consultant hired by the district recommends reducing the number of different start times across the district by adopting a three-tier bell system and routinely updating routes and bus stops.
According to the consultant, the district should work to identify opportunities to reduce transportation costs, including monitoring ridership throughout the school year and collaborating with outside school systems to maximize the fleet.
