ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, MD — The Anne Arundel County Board of Education will hold a public workshop to discuss recommendations from the transportation consultant report at 6 p.m. March 10 in the board room of the Carol S. Parham Building, 2644 Riva Rd.

The board will hear from representatives of Prismatic Services, Inc., the transportation consultant contracted by the board to examine potential efficiencies as they relate to Anne Arundel County Public Schools’ student transportation services.

The report contains 27 recommendations to potentially make transportation services more efficient, including additional staffing. It also recommends the evaluation of two school start and dismissal times scenarios.
