Harford County Public Schools Bus Drivers Recognized For Commitment To Kids, Safety

HARFORD COUNTY, MD — Harford County Public Schools has recognized several bus drivers with awards.

Crystal Ryan has been named the 2024 General Education Bus Driver of the Year. Holly Bostic has been named as the 2024 Special Needs Bus Driver of the Year. Steven Arbaugh has been recognized as the Special Needs Bus Attendant of the Year for 2024.

Drivers and attendants were nominated by members of the public, co-workers and students through an online nomination form. A committee comprised of school-based and transportation employees reviewed every nomination before selecting the winners.

“Bus drivers and attendants are the first HCPS face our students see in the morning, and the last they see at the end of the day,” said HCPS Superintendent Sean Bulson. “All our drivers and attendants work diligently to make that a positive experience for our students and these three go above and beyond. Their positive attitudes and connection with the students they drive and care for are second to none and we are extremely lucky to have them driving our students every day.”
