“I was fortunate enough to be hired on as a B-PC bus driver back in 2006 and have enjoyed getting the students picked up and delivered safely to school and back home. It’s been fun to watch these kids grow up from pre-k to 12th grade and hear their daily stories and what they did over the weekend. B-PC has been good to me and my family.”
