Marin Catholic is a private college preparatory high school in the San Francisco Bay Area with a student body of approximately 800 students. With an athletics program that spans 29 sports and 40+ individual teams, the school needed affordable and flexible transportation to support its expansive program.

Marin Catholic switched from traditional shuttle services to Zum’s smarter and more flexible transportation solution. “Before Zum we had to reserve transportation long in advance,” said Assistant Principal for Athletics, Dave Basso. “This caused major issues when we have rescheduled games and playoffs.”

Now Marin Catholic has the freedom to schedule transportation the day before a game. “Zum is all about flexibility,” adds Dave Basso. “It’s exactly what we needed and hoped for.” He also highlights the flexibility of one-way or roundtrip transportation, as well as the option to schedule sedans or SUVs if needed for smaller groups.

"Zum thinks like a school, not a corporation. They give us the best deal for our money."
