Ashley Fussell, transportation area supervisor for Virginia Beach City Public Schools, has completed the National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT) Special Needs Transportation (SNT) Training Program.  Fussell became one of 39 NAPT members in the nation to complete this program.

The NAPT Special Needs Transportation training program provides numerous opportunities for transportation personnel serving students with disabilities to access educational opportunities and receive national recognition.

The program has a core curriculum that consists of six Special Needs courses in a variety of different settings, including a school bus roadeo and a trade show of school transportation products and services. The core curriculum is supplemented by two courses of elective instruction from the NAPT Professional Development Series Program. The syllabus for the core curriculum has been specifically designed to increase an individual’s specific knowledge about transporting students with disabilities.

Congratulations!
