Transportation sharing eyed for added savings
Morris school districts already share special ed transportation
The Morris Community Shared Services Committee discussed the possibility of sharing regular education transportation in order for the four public school districts in Morris to save money.
Since the 2002-2003 school year, the four districts — Morris Elementary School District 54, Saratoga School District 60C, Nettle Creek School District 24C and Morris Community High School District 101 — have been sharing special education transportation.
This past school year, the districts spent $640,000 on special education transportation and saved about $600,000 compared to what would have been spent had they contracted independently, Saratoga District Superintendent Kathy Perry said.
