National Love the Bus Month – Blytheville School District
February is National Love the Bus Month, and we want to take a moment to recognize the amazing men and women who safely transport our students every single day!
Our bus drivers and transportation staff are the first smiling faces our students see in the morning and the last caring adults they see in the afternoon. Rain or shine, they are committed to safety, reliability, and service to our families.
Community, please help us say THANK YOU to our outstanding bus drivers and staff!
If you see one of our drivers this week, take a moment to share your appreciation. A simple “thank you” goes a long way!
