These are the individuals we trust with our children on the roads each day to and from school, and according to a news release from the Vestal School District, the students of Glenwood Elementary recognize how important their school bus drivers can be.

The fifth graders in Ms Borgeson’s class started putting together “Thank You” cards to show their appreciation and lift the spirits of school bus drivers, the attendants who ride with them and other transportation staff.

According to the U.S. Bureau of labor Statistics, there are close to 700 thousand school bus drivers, monitors, and transportation employees in this country.

WNBF recognizes the hard work and dedication our School Bus Drivers continue to do each time they are behind the wheel.

Thank You for keeping our kids safe on the road.
