The New York School Bus Contractors Association (NYSBCA) represents the private school bus transportation industry with the primary mission of promoting safe, reliable, and cost-effective student transportation in New York State. Formed in 1950, NYSBCA has a proud and accomplished tradition of serving as the voice of school bus contractors, distributors, manufacturers, and suppliers on issues of common interest at the state and federal levels.

New York school bus contractors provide transportation services to 85% of the school districts in New York and transport over half of the 2.3 million students who ride a yellow school bus to school each day. Private school bus companies operate roughly 30,000 school vehicles, serving over 300 school districts, and employ approximately 45,000 people in New York State.

The Association works tirelessly to ensure every contractor has access to the latest school transportation safety education and training resources to ensure every child reaches their destination safely, without incident, and on time is a responsibility the industry takes very seriously. Safety is always our number one priority.
