The Guardian Difference

We’ve been in the student transportation industry for decades and have achieved the reputation as one of Long Island’s finest school bus carriers.

There’s nothing more important than the safety of our children and to prove this, we’ll never stop working to earn the trust of Long Island’s parents. There’s no more important task than transporting Long Island’s youth, so no bus route is taken lightly. To ensure this reality, we are fully dedicated to recruiting and retaining only the very best trained drivers and escorts in the industry.

We take unrivaled care in transporting students and believe that the students we transport are as important as our own. Our mantra is Safety Makes Sense and we never forget it!

Safety is our top priority! It is a daily objective we achieve consistently. Employee training programs and processes support our commitment to safety. Our safety core values are carried out, from our drivers to our corporate managers.

  • Rigorous hiring process
  • Thorough employee background checks
  • Continuous school bus safety training
  • Daily bus safety inspections
  • Child check policy
  • GPS technology
  • Preventive bus maintenance programs

My daughter was just asking me the other day if she was riding the Guardian bus next year?, and the year after that?, and the year after that?! I told her as long as we had a Guardian bus, she would be riding it. I asked her why she was asking, not sure if it was a positive or negative in her mind and her response was, `I like to ride the Guardian bus with my friends’. There, you heard it!
