Commendation for Excellence-A Salute to Our Transportation Heroes
Mr. Ronny McRae, Mr. Joe Anderson, and Mr. Bobby Portis have done an outstanding job of keeping our buses running. The Alabama State Department of Education is required to check our buses for safety purposes each year. Give our transportation department a shout-out for 0 deficiencies during the inspection. The transportation department is often the unsung hero of education. Without the bus wheels turning, we cannot educate our youth. Along with recognizing Mr. McRae, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Portis, we want to recognize our drivers and administrative staff. Thank you for all you do for our system. You are appreciated.
