Franklin Square Union Free School District (New York)
Winning the TTT award for the second consecutive year is a testament to the culture in our district. From top to bottom, we work together for the common good of our students.
I believe that leadership, culture and compensation are the three things that matter most to our transportation staff. My team knows they can come to me with any questions — and I know I can go to my district administration in the same manner. Cultivating a culture that makes people want to come to work for reasons beyond a paycheck is also important. “We have a good time — while delivering a critical public service.”
Gregg Fox, Transportation Director - Franklin Square UFSD (New York)
What’s something districts should know about the Top Transportation Teams program?
How has the feedback from the program helped your team improve?
Here is what the Franklin Square team had to say:
It’s a blessing to work with people that care!
A place that you can come tow ork with a smile on your face and also leave at the end of the day with that same smile on your face.
It’s a learning curve every day, a satisfying and enjoyable experience working to provide a safe ride to and from school for these kids.
We are a small team but we think big. We work hard to succeed and ensure that our children are safe day in and out.
From Leadership:
We all work as a team. Supervisors and managers lead by example.
