🚌 As National School Bus Safety Week comes to an end, we want to give a huge shout-out to our ELANCO bus drivers! Our dedicated transportation team works hard to transport our learners to and from school, on educational field trips, and to athletic events! Bus drivers also go the extra mile by tracking school bus violations. This critical data is reported to PennDOT for enforcement and tracking!🚓

Together, we can all contribute to a safer environment on the roads. 🚦
Remember... FLASHING red lights mean STOP. 🛑
It’s the law, and it keeps our learners safe! 🚸

We are incredibly grateful for our heroes on the road! 💙
