School Bus Heavyweights at Ed Board Meeting

Hmmm …. This has us wondering what’s up? Civil Beat has been exploring the high cost of student transportation in Hawaii in its series, Taken for a Ride. Perhaps the Board of Education is finally working on ways to rein in the runaway costs?
The Board of Education is in executive session, and waiting outside are at least four members of the Gomes family, who represent the school bus lobby. Lee Gomes is president of the Hawaii School Bus Association.
Will be interesting to hear what they have to say. There is nothing school bus-related on the agenda today.
