Government Proclaims School Bus Driver Appreciation Day

Released on October 20, 2014

Education Minister Don Morgan has proclaimed October 20 as School Bus Driver Appreciation Day. Held during Education Week, School Bus Driver Appreciation Day provides students, parents, caregivers, school divisions and education professionals with the opportunity to thank all school bus drivers in Saskatchewan for their work in ensuring the safety of the province’s students.

“Every day in Saskatchewan, school bus drivers are responsible for transporting approximately 70,000 students to and from school,” said Morgan. “I would like to thank the dedicated school bus drivers in our province who provide safe and reliable transportation for our students.” 

The Student Transportation Association of Saskatchewan (STAS) represents the individuals who transport students to school on behalf of Saskatchewan school divisions.

“STAS would like to thank all the school bus drivers in Saskatchewan for their tireless efforts to provide safe transportation of students to and from school for 10 months of the year,” STAS Director Larry Senga said.  “Through all the distractions they endure - students, traffic and weather - they still provide the safest mode of transportation in the world.  Good job.”

School Bus Driver Appreciation Day coincides with Education Week each year.  These events present an opportunity to celebrate the success of students in Saskatchewan while also acknowledging the important work of the people who support them.
