Where Education Starts the Moment
Students Step on the Bus
Books
on the Bus is a program that brings the joy of reading to students
during their commute to and from school. Southern Door Books on the Bus
conducted by the district’s bus drivers and district reading specialist
makes books available for students to read and enjoy together. Commute
times go by more quickly for students and they arrive at school inspired
and ready to learn. When students are engaged in a meaningful activity,
the bus drivers can focus on the safe transportation of students. To
quote a community member, “Your willingness to try something new is just
one example of progress made when we focus on the opportunities inside
every challenge.”
