  2. Give a Small Gift: A small gift such as a coffee or a restaurant gift card, a fun nice re-usable water bottle, or some baked treats are always a thoughtful way to show your appreciation. These small gestures can brighten a bus driver’s day and show them that they are valued and appreciated.

  3. Express Your Gratitude in Public: Consider making a public show of appreciation by posting signs or a banner in your school parking lot. If you live in a small town, you could also write a letter to the local newspaper expressing your gratitude for the hard work and dedication of your local bus drivers!

  4. Recognize their Contribution: Take the time to acknowledge the important role that bus drivers play in our communities. Encourage your children to thank their bus driver and ask them to share with their classmates about Bus Driver Appreciation Day!
