It's National School Bus Safety Week: October 19-23, 2009 Getting kids to and from school safely and on schedule makes bus drivers, mechanics and other transportation personnel an integral part of our schools and our communities. Bus drivers are the people who make sure that students get to school and back home safely every day. They are the first school workers to greet students in the morning and the last to wave goodbye to them in the afternoon. From winding country roads to busy city streets, school bus drivers carry the most precious cargo: our children. School bus drivers, mechanics and other school transportation personnel care about the kids and the community. Bus drivers know that parents want the peace of mind that comes from trusting the person behind the wheel of the big yellow bus. Thank you, Adair County Transportation Department, for a job well done! s/Phyllis Curry, Adair Co. Schools Instructional Supervisor 2009-10-22 06:17:26 | Comments | Printable version
