Research shows that the time of day students attend school directly impacts their success. In addition to bell times affecting students, families, staff, and the broader community, they are also the most important factor to achieving an efficient transportation program. Changing bell times to meet the evolving needs of your district requires thoughtful planning, robust analysis, and clear communication with all stakeholders. CESO has helped both large and small school districts navigate these complexities well. Our bell time planning services are customized to your needs and can include any of the following for a comprehensive solution:

Critical questions at the beginning of bell schedule planning help define your district's goals to ensure the final design matches your needs. Sample questions that build this clarity include: What are we trying to achieve? Are all schools being considered or only some? What start time is too early or too late? How soon should buses arrive before start times?
Developing bell time scenarios is key to not only make data-driven decisions but also to narrow down options. Analyzing too many plausible bell time scenarios can be as unhelpful as analyzing too few. We help you establish clarity for the right number of options available and the tradeoffs.
We help you avoid getting caught in analysis paralysis and instead bring multiple tools and techniques to the table to tell a comprehensive story of your options. CESO combines algorithms with our real-world experience to deliver compelling and easy to understand visualization of the results.
Communication is critical during a complex project like bell time changes because of its broad impact to students, families, staff, and the community. Our school communications and public relations experts partner with our transportation team to develop a plan to increase stakeholder buy-in and help everyone feel informed and empowered.
Change can only be successful through effective implementation. CESO offers change management support services to ensure a strong return on your time and energy investment as your plan comes to life.
