What's New At Palmer?
Happy National School Bus Safety Week! 🚍 Keep our kids safe with these simple tips: Slow down for yellow lights, stop for red and the extended stop arm, remind kids to cross in front of the bus, and stay 10 feet back from the curb at bus stops. Let's make safety a priority!
As the new school year gets underway, our focus remains dedicated to the safety and well-being of the students we transport every day. Recently, our team was interviewed by KEYC to discuss the start of the school year, the increased presence of buses on the roads, and how the driver shortage is beginning to ease slightly. Watch the full interview here, or at;

The Department of Public Safety and the State Patrol are excited to announce the release of their “School Bus Safety: Be Ready for the Ride” training video.
This is a great resource and we, at Palmer Bus, encourage you to view it with your bus riders!
The following videos are great resources from the Department of Public Safety, that illustrate why paying attention while driving and respecting the school bus stop arm is so important.
