Dallas Elementary Honors Bus Drivers

By Debra A. Lewis, Dallas Elementary

Every month of the school year, in darkness and daylight, bitter cold and brutal heat, Dallas Elementary's school bus drivers travel thousands upon thousands of miles on everything from dirt paths to multi-lane highways to deliver our precious school students to their places of learning and then home again.

The breadth and scope of that responsibility is great and the hours are difficult. The position of a school bus driver requires tremendous responsibility. They have to maneuver through traffic regardless of road conditions while maintaining the conduct of the children on the bus and are looked upon for leadership and life-saving decision-making in the event of an emergency. 

Dallas Elementary honored their bus drivers on Friday, Oct. 25 with a pizza and cake party.
