Serving approximately 3,800–4,000 students, the district is made up of a diverse and engaged student body supported by dedicated educators and staff.

The district includes a total of 9 schools: five elementary schools, one early learning center, two middle schools, and North Kingstown High School. Each school is committed to fostering a supportive, inclusive, and academically challenging environment where students are encouraged to grow, achieve, and thrive.

With a strong focus on student-centered learning, community collaboration, and continuous improvement, the North Kingstown School Department takes pride in providing high-quality educational opportunities that prepare students for success both in school and beyond.

Summary of Responsibilities:

The Transportation Supervisor is responsible for the comprehensive oversight, coordination, and continuous improvement of the district’s transportation program, ensuring safe, efficient, and reliable service for all students. Serving approximately 3,800–4,000 students across multiple schools, the transportation system is a critical operational component of the North Kingstown School Department—a high-performing, student-centered district known for its strong community partnerships, commitment to excellence, and dedication to supporting the whole child.

Technology and Systems Management:
Develops and maintains computerized routing and field trip tracking systems to support efficient operations, accurate reporting, and effective communication with schools and families.
Contract Negotiations and Administration:
Serves as a key member of the district’s negotiation team for transportation-related collective bargaining agreements and manages relationships with contracted transportation providers to ensure compliance and performance.
Fleet Oversight:
Oversees the maintenance, repair, and replacement planning for all district-owned vehicles, ensuring safety, reliability, and compliance with state and federal regulations.
Stakeholder Communication and Issue Resolution:
Addresses and resolves transportation concerns from parents, school administrators, and community members in a timely and professional manner, maintaining a strong focus on customer service.
Specialized Transportation Coordination:
Collaborates closely with the Student Services Department to ensure the safe, appropriate, and legally compliant transportation of students with special needs, including those requiring individualized transportation plans.
Regulatory Compliance and Best Practices:
Remains current on federal and state transportation regulations, industry and safety trends, DER(Designated Employer Representative) responsibilities, and emerging technologies to continuously improve the district’s transportation services.
District Leadership and Reporting:
Participates in School Committee meetings, budget development sessions, and other district leadership meetings as requested. Provides data, analysis, and recommendations to support informed decision-making.
