Drivers Are Critical To Student Learning
By Chad Jensema, Director of Transportation, Superior School District
Take a Look & Reflect. This is one of the many mirrors a bus driver uses while operating a school bus.
Eligible bus riders are transported to and from school each day. Just think, if students were not in the school buildings, the classroom teaching would not be received, then classroom learning would not take place. Bus drivers provide this critical link in the learning process.
The school bus driver provides the first and last district employee contact of a student’s day. The driver can help a student start their day with a friendly greeting and leave them with a friendly goodbye.
So you may be saying, what does this mean for me the reader? Great question, this is a call to action, a personal reflection in which you are to ask yourself, “Am I interested or able to make a difference in the lives of the youth in my community?” If you’ve answered yes, please consider being a bus driver.
