The goal of National School Bus Safety Week is to address the importance of school bus safety. This takes place each year during the third full week in October and offers a reminder to all parents, teachers, students, motorists, and school bus operators about the importance of following the law and implementing school bus safety tips. Parents should be able to trust that when their child gets on the school bus, there is no need to worry about their safety. If everyone follows school bus safety rules, every child will stay safe. We are thankful for our Marion County bus drivers!
