Expressing support for the designation of the third week in October as 
                    National School Bus Safety Week.

Whereas school bus drivers and all school transportation staff, including 
        managers, monitors, trainers, mechanics, and dispatchers, make 
        substantial contributions to the future of America and to the 
        development of our Nation's young people as knowledgeable, responsible 
        and productive citizens;
Whereas excellence in education is dependent on safe, secure, and peaceful 
        routes to school and school settings;
Whereas the safety and well-being of many students rely on school bus drivers 
        and the school transportation team to get them to and from school and 
        other events in a safe, professional manner;
Whereas school bus drivers and all school transportation staff, including 
        managers, monitors, trainers, mechanics and dispatchers, are an 
        invaluable component of our educational system and have performed an 
        outstanding job transporting our most precious resource, young students; 
        and
Whereas the third week in October will be designated as National School Bus 
        Safety Week to promote efforts to provide all our Nation's schools with 
        positive and safe learning climates: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) celebrates the dedication and contributions that school 
        bus drivers, managers, trainers, monitors, mechanics and 
        dispatchers make for our children every day across the country;
            (2) supports the goals and ideals of National School Bus 
        Safety Week; and
            (3) calls upon the people of the United States to observe 
        such a week with appropriate ceremonies, programs, and 
        activities.
