Westerly Safety Patrol celebrates Bus Safety Week

Westerly's safety patrol members greet their bus drivers with colorful signs.

Westerly School in Bay Village celebrated National Bus Safety Week by honoring our bus drivers. The patrol members made posters which they held up every morning as the buses arrived at school. After the students unloaded, patrol members treated the bus drivers with a cookie or muffin.

Did you know that Bay Village has 15 buses, two vans, 10 regular drivers and one mechanic? The bus drivers drive over 537 miles per day in the buses and 141 miles per day in the vans. Over 835 students are transported daily.

The students, staff, and parents are grateful to our wonderful bus drivers for the commitment to the safety of our students. Their dedication makes a difference. Thank you to each and every Bay bus driver!
