We had a great time at Saturday's 13th Annual Montana Clean Air Fair hosted by the Montana Renewable Energy Association. It was a great opportunity for us to give guests a ride on an electric school bus and answer questions about the battery range, driving differences, charging options and bus safety. Riders couldn't believe how quiet the bus was. We were honored to participate in the event.

Personal safety pledges are posted and each one of them is an inspiration. It’s amazing how everyone stops and looks and reads them. Inspiring others and challenging all of us to remember ours and other individuals most important reasons for safety. You may also notice our “Reaching for the Stars” bulletin board which is eagerly awaiting start-up when we add drivers names along with their Mobile Manager achievements.

Nothing like the first day of school! It was great to be back serving Carlsbad Unified School District and transporting their students with special needs. Pictured below, myself, Josh Kennington and one of our transportation partners, Lyndon with Venture Medical. First Student's first priority is caring for students, and being at the school today greeting the students as they were dropped off was a great reminder of why we do what we do. #FirstAltCares
