We are excited to announce that we will be launching in Indianapolis, Indiana, this fall, partnering with Franklin Township Community School Corporation, Tindley Accelerated Schools, Irvington Community Schools, Brownsburg Community School Corporation, and Southeast Neighborhood School of Excellence (SENSE) to supplement and expand transportation options for students.
With HopSkipDrive, Indianapolis schools and other organizations will be able to book safe, reliable rides for students, especially those who live far from campus or have needs that cannot be met with traditional school buses. HopSkipDrive’s dynamic driver availability fills gaps in transportation access, enabling schools and districts to support individual student needs — including those related to school choice or school-of-origin transportation for students who are living in foster care or experiencing homelessness.
“In our commitment to excellence, we’re excited to be partnering with HopSkipDrive to empower our students by providing alternative transportation options aligned with each student’s journey,” said Todd Livesay, Director of Transportation at Franklin Township Community School Corporation. “Transportation should never be a barrier to educational equity, and we’re embracing new, innovative solutions that will help us put our students on the path to success.”
“Tindley is looking forward to providing reliable and safe transportation for our students through this partnership for the upcoming school year. The rides are tracked in real-time, and our staff appreciates HopSkipDrive’s enhanced safety protocols for students of all ages,” said Dr. Jonathan Harris, CEO at Tindley Accelerated Schools.
“We take great pride in providing a dependable and trustworthy student transportation solution to schools and districts, and we’re looking forward to doing so in Indianapolis,” said Joanna McFarland, Co-founder and CEO of HopSkipDrive. “Working together, we can eliminate transportation barriers and impact the lives of children and the community. We are excited to offer Indianapolis students a safe, reliable way to get to school, helping them reach their educational goals.”
Backed by industry-leading safety technology and processes, HopSkipDrive offers a safe and reliable transportation solution, combining sophisticated technology with deep operational expertise to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone who uses the HopSkipDrive platform.
