STSCO is responsible for planning school bus routes for Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board, PVNC and Conseil scolaire catholique MonAvenir schools. He is retiring from his position in early May.

“I have appreciated working with many bus and taxi company managers over the years and interacting with several thousand drivers. I always enjoyed being challenged with issues and problems which require careful analysis,” said Sloggett. “Supporting the education of children by getting them to school ready to learn and home after an enjoyable day has been a big motivator over these many years.”

Sloggett started at PVNC in 1996 as a supervisor of planning and assessment. He was promoted to the Board’s Manager of Planning and Transportation role, which he held from 1996 to 2005 when STSCO was established and he was hired as CAO to oversee transportation planning for all three local school boards.

Sloggett served as President of the Ontario Association of School Business Officials Association (OASBO) in 2009-10 and was awarded the International Association of School Business Officials Pinnacle Award in 2010 for business operations leadership, recognizing STSCO’s innovative bus company performance monitoring system.

Sloggett plans to travel internationally and perform home renovations upon his retirement. 

“Every day has been a fast-paced, action-packed one in school busing and I will miss that,” said Sloggett.

An announcement introducing the new STSCO CAO will be released next week.
