Bus Driver Appreciation Week: Please Wear Yellow on Monday, 2/19!

At Royal, we LOVE our transportation heroes! Bus Driver Appreciation Week is February 19-23. Bus drivers are the first Royal employees that many of our students see each day. They are committed to ensuring that our students have a great start to their day of learning. Drivers also take our students to events, activities, and more! We cannot thank them enough for their dedication to our students' success and safety.
