Rural Hall Students and Staff Let Bus Drivers Know How Much They Appreciate Them

"We Wheelie Appreciate You"

The recent bad weather, with its missed days and late starts, meant that the folks at Rural Hall Elementary School had to alter their plans for Bus Driver Appreciation Week.

That didn’t keep them from letting the bus drivers who serve the school know how much they appreciate them by serving them hot coffee and doughnuts, juice and lots of chocolate and the students giving the bus drivers many thanks. One of the signs they set up read, “We Wheelie Appreciate You!!!”

“We celebrated for almost two weeks to let them know we are appreciative of them taking our Bulldogs to and from the school,” said Yamile McBride, the interim assistant principal. “We also welcomed them in the morning with loud wake-up music and Bulldog cheerleaders as we got to hang out with a few of them before they went to the rest of their stops.”
