School buses transform rural education in Bath area

The article notes the shift from one room schoolhouses to consolidated plants with libraries and gyms, driven by school bus use. It details Bath's early adoption in 1925 with operator Ralph Kenney, lists a lengthy daily route, safety care from driver Harold Armes, and a routine that serves about 200 pupils daily along a 60 mile circuit with multiple stops. It cites a survey comparing bus travel to railroads, cost efficiency of 19.50 per year per pupil, and nationwide growth in bus miles and nights of service, ending with a tease of continued coverage.
