Sean Corr Named President Of Educational Bus

Sean Corr, a third-generation member of one of New York State’s largest school transportation and public transit providers, has been named president of Educational Bus, which provides student transportation services to school districts in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, including Massapequa, Amityville, Wantagh, Seaford, Farmingdale, Bethpage and South Huntington. The announcement was made by Timothy E. Flood, executive vice president of The Trans Group, parent company of Educational Bus.

“Everyone at The Trans Group joins me in congratulating Sean on being named president of Educational Bus,” said Flood. “Having a third-generation member of the Corr family at the helm of Educational Bus will help lead us into an even safer, more efficient and environmentally supportive era of school transportation.”

Corr’s father, John Corr, Jr., is president of The Trans Group and past president of the National School Transportation Association (NSTA), a national organization dedicated to school bus safety and efficiency. In 1952, his father, John Corr, Sr., founded the company that was to become part of The Trans Group.

“Sean Corr grew up around school buses, working on vehicles in our shops, similar to how his father started,” said Flood. “He brings that familiarity, expertise, and passion to his role as president.”

In addition to his involvement with The Trans Group, Corr is a past recipient of the prestigious Thomas Built Buses Continuing Education Award, an annual grant presented to an employee of a contractor company belonging to the NSTA for educational programs.

The Trans Group employs more than 1,700 individuals and operates more than 1,200 school and public transit buses in lower New York State and Long Island. The company is actively involved in the school bus industry on a state and national level.
