Fremont City Schools proclaims "Love the Bus Month," highlights safety and district mileage
Summary
A Fremont City Schools staff member announced a board-approved proclamation recognizing "Love the Bus Month," emphasized that school buses enable access to learning and extracurriculars, and shared district mileage figures and where to view the archived presentation.
A staff member from Fremont City Schools announced that the district board approved a proclamation recognizing "Love the Bus Month" and used a message recorded at the district Transportation Center to highlight school-bus safety and district mileage.
The staff member said the Transportation Center is "the home of our bus fleet where our mechanics work to keep our buses on the road and the location where our drivers and our aids start and end their day." The message noted the proclamation was approved at the board's meeting the previous night.
The announcement included a national-scope safety claim: "the yellow school bus is the safest mode of transportation for some 26,000,000 American children each and every school day," the staff member said. The district framed that point as part of honoring the staff who operate the system.
Locally, the speaker provided Fremont City Schools' transportation metrics: "In Fremont City Schools, we average 2,174 miles per day," and said the district drove 391,262 miles for daily routes and 49,237 miles for extracurriculars and field trips last school year.
The message also recognized the mechanics, drivers and aides who manage district transportation and described a board introduction of students in grades 1–3 at the prior meeting. The speaker directed listeners to the archived meeting video at fremontschools.net and the district YouTube channel for the full presentation and invited interested applicants to contact the district office.
No additional motions, vote counts, or the names of board members who moved or seconded the proclamation were provided in the recorded message.
