About Love the Bus
The Love the Bus program, founded in 2007 and coordinated by the American School Bus Council (ASBC), is celebrated on Valentine’s Day and throughout February in school districts across the country as a way to raise awareness and appreciation for the hundreds of thousands of school bus drivers who safely transport school children to and from school each day on 480,000 buses, the largest and safest transportation system in the country. It is also an opportunity for parents and children to learn more about the safety and environmental benefits of school bus transportation.
