What their customers say

“From a customer service standpoint, from my perspective, First Student hit the mark dead on. First Student has delivered what we’ve asked First Student to deliver.”
“Since implementing FirstActs, the timeliness of addressing behavior issues on the bus has shown significant improvement.”
“If we cannot do it safely, then we’re not going to do it at all. We have complete togetherness; complete teamwork in everything that we do.”
“The work was a tremendous undertaking, as we have been utilizing the same routing approach for 31 years, but knew we could improve. Besides costs savings, the process was efficient and seamless, with significant results.”
“The logistics of running 600 buses every day is no small feat, but starting up the location for the first time was a huge undertaking. The logistics going into that were very complicated, and very challenging.”

““First Solutions earned a 10 out of 10! We would definitely recommend working with First Solutions.””
““This is an actual program that is changing behavior in a positive way. They are not just saying that drivers are being safer or that drivers are taking their time, they can show you the fast accelerations, those quick stops, the speeding, it’s not happening as much””
““We’re more than satisfied and we do consider this a true partnership.””
““Money was a catalyst for us. We found we would save a million dollars a year for five years when we first signed the contract. One of the things we have always prided ourselves on is the safety and care of our students. No matter how much money we saved, if we thought we would have to sacrifice safety, we wouldn’t have done it.””
“I don’t think that there is a better company out there that spends more time in relationship to safety and customer service than First Student.”
“We felt that First Student had the best product and service at the most advantageous price for the benefit of our students. At Buffalo Public Schools, we see ourselves as progressive and this is a way for the district to offer our students the utmost safety and comfort.”
“The community is a big part of who we are and what we do on a daily basis. We need to be in touch with what’s going on out there. We not only participate in school functions, but outside functions, as well.”
