ST. PETERSBURG — One year ago MYcroSchool Pinellas partnered with Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) to bring U-Pass to students, to provide them with unlimited free bus rides as long as they make it to all of their classes each week.
This Monday, with students on hand, the school’s staff and PSTA board members celebrated the renewal of their partnership at the school’s campus at 840 Third Ave. S.
“A lot of us don’t always think about public transportation, about how we’re going to get to places, but it affects us all,” asserted Brad Miller, CEO of PSTA. “This partnership that we have with MYcroSchool is something we’re very, very proud of.”
Miller noted that the U-Pass not only helps get students to school to attend classes, but assists them in getting to other appointments and events.
