Safety technology and training have become a top priority, as those in the industry seek to stay informed and educated on the latest safety measures.

Valerie Higley, a school bus driver for First Student at East Lyme Public Schools in Connecticut, has taken a unique approach to promoting school bus safety. She wrote a children’s book featuring her goat, Shaman, and uses it as a tool to educate students on the importance of safety while riding the bus. By caring for students as if they were her own, Higley has found a creative way to ensure their safety while traveling to and from school.
