    Episode 2: Behind the wheel 🚌 Kids ask, school bus drivers answer!

    What do our school bus drivers find on their buses? How much does diesel fuel cost? And just how much do they love the kids they drive every day? 🚌👀 In honor of Bus Driver Appreciation Week, our Between the Stripes crew is going behind the wheel to learn more about the people who get us to school safely! Student interviewers Cora and Anna Leigh hit our bus drivers with questions dreamed up by our student crew. Then hosts Tyler, Kennedy, and Justice react to the interviews and share their thoughts on what they discovered. From some seriously gross things left behind on buses (yes, we're talking about food!) to the surprising cost of keeping those big yellow buses running, this episode is full of fun facts, laughs, and appreciation for our amazing bus drivers. Join us as we celebrate the people who do so much more than drive a bus. They care for our kids, help keep our school community moving, and make a difference every single day. ❤️ Happy Bus Driver Appreciation Week! 🐯 ABOUT BETWEEN THE STRIPES Between the Stripes is a podcast produced by Roar Nation Student Media at Atkinson Elementary in Newnan, Georgia, part of the Coweta County School System.
