blue heart award - transportation department

We are proud to present our Transportation Department with the Blue Heart Award in recognition of their outstanding dedication and performance. Our bus drivers collectively drive over 3,000 miles each day, and their commitment to safety, reliability, and care for our students truly exemplifies the heart of our district. This incredible team, led by strong and dependable leadership, went above and beyond during challenging weather conditions—including snow, ice, and an unexpected early school closure—ensuring every student was transported safely with zero accidents.

Shout out to Transportation Department Supervisor Barbara Lyons and her team!
