Pleasant Hill PreK students got a firsthand lesson in bus safety today! From boarding safely to learning important bus rules, students gained valuable knowledge through a hands-on experience. A big thank you to Barb Norman for taking the time to teach our young learners what safe bus riding looks like. We appreciate all you do to keep students safe! 🚌 Accessibility Note: Students are shown learning about bus safety from bus driver Barb Norman during an interactive demonstration on and around a school bus.
