The Sudbury Student Services was formed on January 17, 2001 as a partnership of the four coterminous school boards in the Sudbury area to deliver common services beginning with student transportation.

The Rainbow District School Board,
Le Conseil Scolaire catholique du Nouvel-Ontario,
The Sudbury Catholic District School Board, and
Le Conseil Scolaire public du Grand Nord de l’Ontario

In July 2009, the four partner boards established the Consortium as a separate legal entity through incorporation to further formalize its entity status.  The Sudbury Student Services Consortium also provides transportation services for Huron Superior Catholic District School Board as well as area First Nations.

The Sudbury Student Services Consortium is governed by a board of directors consisting of the Chief Financial Officer of each of the member school boards.

The Sudbury Student Services Consortium currently transports over 20,000 students on 397 buses daily at a cost of over $28,000,000 per year. Continuous optimization exercises have resulted in a transportation system that is one of the most efficient in the Province of Ontario.
