Summary:
School Bus Drivers' Day originated in California. After being observed there unofficially for some time, the California legislature decided to make the day official. In 2009, they commemorated School Bus Drivers' Day to pay public attention to school bus drivers for their outstanding services to students in California.

Each year, on the fourth Tuesday of April, school bus drivers are honored for their dedication to the safety of our school children. This year that date is April 23, 2024.

Our children, being our most precious resource, are entrusted to our school bus drivers each day. In addition to the driving skills and the unexpected hazards school bus drivers face, they also exhibit patience and kindness, as well as, counseling and disciplinary techniques towards our children. They are to be recognized for their continued and excellent services to our students and are deserving of special public recognition.
