Great experience. We needed a last minute school bus for one of our camp day trips and First Charter was very helpful and efficient. We will definitely use them in the future.

Excellent first school bus trip!
For many of our students, this was their first school bus experience. Needless to say, they were SUPER EXCITED. Our bus driver, Daniela, was very friendly and professional and made our students, faculty, and parent chaperones feel safe. Everyone enjoyed the trip. The bus was clean and Daniela was absolutely wonderful. She kept up communication with our lead chaperone so we knew when she was back at our field trip location so we could leave on time. Would definitely use this First Student location again.

The bus did not drive up to the front door of our wedding venue so the bride, groom and brides parents had to walk back to the hotel.
