February 1st kicked off "Love the Bus Month" which emphasizes the importance of school buses, viewing them not merely as vehicles but as essential elements woven into the fabric of education. By celebrating and honoring the yellow school bus and its drivers, we reinforce our commitment to nurturing safe and inclusive educational journeys for every student. In doing so, we ensure that this cherished tradition remains a cornerstone of our communities, driving forward with pride and purpose.
Good Afternoon, I would like to take this time to address a safety concern that was brought to our attention today. While I cannot share details with you due to confidentiality, I can assure you that the concern was addressed and handled appropriately with the necessary authorities. We would like to thank WV State Police, Taylor County Sheriff Department and Grafton City Police for their support and immediate response. At no time was there an immediate threat and as always, student safety is our top priority. Thank You. TCMS Administration
