Today kicks off National School Bus Safety Week. We are so thankful for our awesome Pettisville Schools transportation staff!
This week serves as a reminder to motorists, students, and school bus drivers of the important role they all have in ensuring children’s safety. This year’s theme is “BEEP! BEEP! School bus safety starts with me,” a reminder to both motorists and students about the dangers that exist outside the school bus.
Thank you Gabe, Tammy, Kelly, Kenzie, Cindy, and all of our substitute drivers who keep our Blackbirds safe! Lastly, thanks to Mrs. Graber, our transportation coordinator! We appreciate you!
