Abstract

This bulletin is presented for the purpose of providing some help to the school administrator in the matter of keeping complete records for pupil and financial accounting in school transportation. It is a recognized fact that the scope of pupil transportation has increased tremendously in the last decade0 Transportation costs now represent approximately 5% of the total school budget for current expenditures. This figure indicates the stewardship responsibility which falls upon school officials in administering a transportation program. Any system of accounting should be a servant and not a master. It is useful only insofar as it provides essential records.
