First Student will add additional safety features to district’s current fleet of 60 buses, including GPS tracking systems which allow the company to know the speed and location of each bus at any given time, the Child Check-Mate electronic reminder system designed to ensure no child is left unattended on a bus, and crossing gates to allow children to cross in front of the bus at a safe distance. The buses serving the Oswego Community Unit School District will also have cameras to monitor on-board activities.
