The Indian Hill Exempted Village School District board held a public hearing on a proposal to reemploy retired bus driver Debbie Friend, with staff noting the posting was made in March to ensure public awareness and opportunity. "Debbie Friend is an experienced driver who knows our routes, students, and expectations well, and she has supported the district in a variety of ways beyond her primary role," a district staff member said during the hearing.
