Gordon County Schools proudly celebrated the 30th Annual Bus Rodeo, a special event recognizing the outstanding skill, safety, and dedication of our school bus drivers!

Drivers from across the district came together to take on a series of challenging events designed to showcase their precision behind the wheel, knowledge of safety procedures, and ability to navigate real-world driving situations with confidence and care.

Our 2026 bus rodeo champion is Marie Gallman! Marie drives TES-2 for the Tolbert and AMS/GCHS routes. Great job! Kristi Keithley placed 2nd and Tania Garland placed 3rd (not pictured).

This year’s rodeo was made even more special thanks to the generosity of our community and local business sponsors, who donated prizes to honor the important work of our transportation team. Their support helped create a fun, competitive, and meaningful day for our drivers who play such a vital role in the daily lives of students and families.

Gordon County Schools also extends sincere appreciation to everyone who helped organize, judge, and support the event. From the planning and setup to the competition itself, the day was a wonderful reminder of the teamwork and community support behind our transportation department. Transportation Director Tim Watkins does an amazing job with his team and this event, and we are grateful for his leadership and dedication to GCS drivers and our community.

Congratulations to every driver who participated. We are thankful for the professionalism, care, and commitment our transportation staff demonstrate every day as they safely carry students to and from school.
