As such, the award is not limited to individuals professionally employed in the field of pupil transportation but may include individuals outside the field who have a significant impact on school bus safety. The award may also include operational employees such as transportation supervisors or directors, driver trainers, drivers, mechanics, etc. Any full or part-time employee of a school distrct, private school, Head Start program, or school bus contractor who is involved with pupil transportation is eligible.
