What is Attendance Starts with a Route?

Attendance Starts with a Route is a free BusRight webinar for district transportation and administrative leaders. It treats transportation as the front door to attendance, funding and compliance. The session walks through a district where a data informed route overhaul helped drive a 51% jump in student attendance.

When is it?

Thursday, October 8, 2026 at 11 a.m. ET (10 a.m. CT) on Zoom. Plan on 30 min of content and 20 min of live Q&A.

What questions will it answer?

• A student's attendance has been slipping for a month. Is anyone connecting that to a route or a stop time before it shows up in your funding numbers?
• A student's IEP changes mid-year. If a parent calls the board before your routes catch up, what is your answer?
• Which of your routes are quietly working against your own graduation numbers?
• Your board asks why transportation spend went up this quarter. How long does it take you to give them a real answer?

What do attendees get?

• The full replay including the open floor, to watch with your admin team.
• The Transportation Office Audit Checklist with the 5 questions BusRight Solutions would ask first if we sat down with your data today.
• Direct access to 2 peers for live, unscripted questions and answers.
