History

Sharitz Bus Service, Inc. was originally started in Bradford County, Canton, Pennsylvania. After Ernest Sharitz returned from the the US Air Force, he and his wife Sara moved to Canton where Ernie began sub-driving for a school bus contractor, Mr, Smith, in 1973. The following year, Mr. Smith offered to sell his three buses to them; they negotiated a contract with Canton Area School District, and Sharitz Bus Service, Inc. was formed.

 

Ernie and Sara are proud to have had the opportunity to provide transportation for the following schools:

  • Canton District
  • Northern Tioga District
  • Athens District
  • Selinsgrove District
  • Lewisburg District
  • Watsontown Christian Academy

Awards

To date, Sharitz Bus Service, Inc. and their employees have received annual Safe-Driver Awards and Employee Recognition Awards through the Pennsylvania School Bus Association (a member since 1982) and sponsored a First Place School Bus Safety Poster Contest winner in Pennsylvania, which also placed third in Nationals. In March 1993, Sharitz Bus Service, Inc, was named Employer of the Year for the Union-Snyder Area Agency in Aging, and in 1997, they were presented the Governor's Highway Safety Award. Sharitz Bus Service also received the 1999 Silver Bus Contractor Award from the Pennsylvania School Bus Association.
