ACES takes care of the bidding process, handles all of the identified schools and students with professionalism, and provides documentation for excess cost and Medicaid. ACES has also done an exceptional job of working with our parents when there have been any bus issues. The RSET program has afforded my office staff more time to focus on other departmental duties which has increased our productivity. Joe Lucibello, Director of Pupil Services West Haven Public Schools "Last year, ACES RSET began transporting some of our out of town Special Education Students. The transportation was seamless and our student's needs were accommodated. Cheshire Public School's first year experience with RSET was a success and we look forward to the same success in the 19-20 school year.
