New National Research on the Impact of Transportation Consistency

EverDriven delivers safe, consistent, and private student transportation solutions for schools in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, where student needs sometimes exceed what a traditional yellow school bus can provide.

Located in Orange County, FL, one of Florida’s most populated counties, the community of Lake Buena Vista sees a vast amount of tourism, but is also home to a diverse student population. EverDriven’s supplemental school transportation services ensure every student arrives ready to learn—safely, on time, and with dignity, no matter what school they attend within Orange County Public Schools, or one of Lake Buena Vista’s local private or charter schools.

We live in Orlando, Florida and when we lost our car due to job loss, my daughter’s school reached out to EverDriven. Within two weeks, she had transportation to and from school. We are beyond grateful to the school and you wonderful people for your awesome services. I can affirmatively say that your services are next level – top notch. It’s safe and the driver is kind and professional. I want to make it clear that you rock and thank you for giving us hope.

EverDriven supports students whose needs fall outside traditional bus routes. This can include students with IEPs, students attending specialized programs, students in foster care, or students experiencing housing instability.

If you believe your child may need transportation support, the first step is to speak with your school or district transportation team.
