Meet the team that makes sure every Polk County student gets to school safely every single day.

Polk County Schools has a six-person transportation team that does it all: setting bus routes, managing activity trips and maintaining an entire fleet. But what makes them truly remarkable is what they do beyond their job titles - every one of them, from the director to the mechanics to the office staff, holds a bus driver certification and gets behind the wheel every morning and afternoon.

Because that's what it takes. And they do it without hesitation.

Their dedication shows in the numbers. Six years ago, Polk County ranked 29th out of 32 counties in the western region on the state's annual bus inspection. This past school year? Third in the region - for the third time in four years.

Transportation Director Jackie Crump says it comes down to one thing.

"At the end of the day, it's about the kids. Keeping them safe, keeping our drivers safe."

When most people think about school transportation, they picture a bus driver behind the wheel and a mechanic in the garage.

Learning has taken root at Tryon Elementary.

Students recently dedicated two exciting new additions to the school's Tiger Trail - a student-built information kiosk and a new outdoor classroom area - capping two years of hands-on work alongside community partner Champions for Wildlife.

"The Tiger Trail and outdoor classroom have given students opportunities to explore, investigate, collaborate, and take pride in creating something meaningful for our entire school community." - Principal Dr. John Mauldin

Students at Tryon Elementary School are taking learning beyond the classroom walls through an exciting hands-on project focused on the development of the school’s Tiger Trail…
