Fellow Transportation Colleagues,

I am Ernest Del Bosque.  I am seeking your support to allow me the opportunity to serve you as President Elect for the Texas Association of Pupil Transportation’s Executive Committee.

I am currently serving on the Executive Committee as Area 5 Director representing the Coastal Bend and South Texas Chapters. I have previously served on the Executive Committee as Area 2 Director, (2013-14) and Secretary, (2015-16).  I have also served as Historian, Treasurer, President Elect, President, and Past President of the Coastal Bend APT.  In North Texas, I was President Elect, President and Past President of the North Texas APT and I have truly enjoyed the duties, responsibilities and the many personal relationships that have accompanied these positions.  I would like to continue being involved in the organization primarily to continue the awesome job that this group does in representing the many Districts across the State and possess the necessary experience to serve as YOUR representative.

I am the Director of Transportation for the Beeville Independent School District since 2001, but went to Garland ISD in 2011 as Assistant Director.  The opportunity to return to Beeville manifested in 2018 and I returned home. Here at “home”, I am blessed to work alongside my Dad, who is a bus driver at the very youthful age of 81 and up until very recently, alongside with my Daughter, who returned to North Texas to work at Dallas ISD as a bus driver.  Having 3 generations of transportation professionals at one district is one of the best things ever!  The best aspect of my life is being married to Carol Barnhart, Director of Transportation for Calallen ISD.  Being in a family that lives and understand our sometimes crazy career path is a bonus!

I am ready to accept the highly detailed duties and responsibilities that the office of President Elect demands and sincerely appreciate your support for my commitment to the TAPT organization.
