Caledonia Community Schools claimed its first place for the third consecutive year at the 58th Annual MAPT School Bus Roadeo competition held at Caledonia High School on Saturday, May 20. The competition brought together top-performing schools in the region, with Caledonia Transportation emerging as the champions against fierce competition.
The School Bus Roadeo is an annual event that highlights the driving abilities of school bus drivers while promoting safe driving practices. Participants undergo rigorous assessments, including a written test and a driving skills test that involves navigating through a course of cones, simulating student loading and unloading, and handling emergency scenarios.
Out of the 14 drivers representing Caledonia Transportation, eight drivers finished in the top 20, and four drivers secured places within the top 5. Betty Nelson, one of Caledonia’s drivers, secured a second place, demonstrating the talent and commitment of the Caledonia School Bus Drivers team.
