The Florida Association for Pupil Transportation (FAPT) provides vision, leadership and services to the student transportation community to improve safety, efficiency and service to Florida’s public school children.

Why you should join FAPT

Joining the FAPT is a good way to learn from others and to expand your support system. Sharing ideas and experience is a benefit to the person who shares as well as those to listen. To “teach” is to “learn” and most members find they have a real sense of being a part of the “big picture” in planning for the changes to come in transportation. Many changes in our governing statutes and regulations are discussed by the FAPT membership before they are implemented, giving members a heads-up and an opportunity to offer guidance. Members also have an opportunity to inform the FDOE School Transportation Management Section the real or potential impact of proposed changes on their district so this can be taken into consideration.
