Every morning and afternoon, kids get on the school bus. The bus driver drives them to school and then takes them home. They follow the same route every day and the driver makes sure the kids are safe and the bus is clean and running well.

This book teaches young readers about a school bus driver's responsibilities, such as transporting students to and from school and special events, enforcing bus safety, and maintaining a school bus.

Provides school bus drivers with basic knowledge about medical emergencies. A few basic principles well learned and correctly applied will be of considerable value in meeting these emergencies.

Covers: spinal injuries, shock, poisoning and drug overdose, bites and stings, head injuries, mental health emergencies, breathing and airway maintenance, foreign bodies, and more. Illustrated.
The purpose of this book, "SCHOOL BUS WISDOM," is to aid the new school bus driver as well as the seasoned school bus driver in keeping their attitude, skills, safety performance and their interaction with students positive, professional, and sharp. Every School Bus driver who transports a part of that precious cargo of 24 million students to and from schools across this vast nation every day, of each school year, will benefit from this book. This book has a massive audience: Every School District throughout this country, as well as the contractors who serve School Districts which do not operate their own School Transportation. The audience also includes Parents and Guardians of students who ride a School Bus and the combination of material would be valuable information for the students themselves.

This is a collection of thoughts and ideas to help school bus drivers achieve positive results. This safety tool would make an excellent gift for all school bus drivers who qualify for a safety award at the end of the school year.

ROMAN BLAISE BLAISE “Understanding the Complex Reality of the SCHOOL BUS DRIVER’S JOB” is the testimony of a school bus driver named Roman Blaise. Throughout the school year, trying to please everyone and answer every question; screaming at the students for their safety on the bus, also smiling, playing and even dancing for them. When necessary, requiring order out of troublemakers, caution out of harassment of other drivers, fairness out of indifference. This book contains important tools of prevention, asks for more children’s understanding, talks about what Roman Blaise has seen and heard, raises various problems encountered by school bus drivers, laments the loss of a colleague. It also questions the system of things and is waiting for answers, forces drivers to learn to adapt to students, raises the barrier of communication between immigrant drivers and students, and tests the driver’s conscience. It ends the last school day with the tears of a black kindergartener who will miss forever the affection of his dear white female teacher. Everyone endowed with the passion to know, should reserve in his libray a space for this fascinating book, “Understanding the Complex Reality of the SCHOOL BUS DRIVER’S JOB”. ROMAN
