WORCESTER, Mass. — A proposal to allow advertisements to be placed on school buses in Worcester is drawing mixed reviews.
John Monfredo, vice chairman of the city's school committee, asked the school department to explore a pilot program to place black-and-white ads on school buses as a way of raising new revenue for educational programs.
School Superintendent Melinda Boone said the administration has discussed the idea with the Worcester Education Development Foundation, but had concerns.
"We're concerned about safety as it relates to people potentially reading the ads and not paying attention to a (bus's) stop arm that's out," Boone said.
Monfredo joined two other school committee members in voting to refer the proposal to a subcommittee for more study, The Telegram and Gazette reported (http://bit.ly/1pvbg3L ).
"I'm really distressed to see this item on here," said Tracy O'Connell Novick, one of two members who voted against sending it to the subcommittee. "We have had a history of keeping commercial activity out of the Worcester Public Schools ... I'm really bothered by the notion we would think transporting our kids could become a commercial enterprise."
