Join us in celebrating our Waterford USD bus drivers and their many years of safe driving! We are so happy to have such an awesome team of drivers, who are dedicated to making every trip fun, cheerful, and SAFE for our students! They are pictured here sitting in one of our brand NEW bluebird buses, which are equipped with 3 point safety belts and have lower emissions.
Also pictured is bus mechanic Luis Perez, who keeps us running smoothly every day!
Here are some fun facts from our bus drivers:
- A school bus weighs the same as 700 kindergarteners!
- Just one tire rotation on those massive bluebird busses rolls the bus forward 10'6"!
