Russ,
Thank you so much for being our bus driver for our WE Day trip! I know that hours of traffic isn’t always fun and I respect those long hours on the road. I hope we were good company as 50+ students can be a lot. Without you, our trip wouldn’t have been possible, and we were lucky to have a really nice and patient driver. If we do this trip again in the years to come, we will keep an eye out for you!

I am writing to thank you for a great trip this week, April 17th, to Sacramento and UC Davis from Watsonville High School. Our driver, Isaac, was very good. He worked well with the students and was able to get us everywhere we wanted to go without any problems.

I just wanted to say that our bus drivers for our March 22nd field trip to the California Academy of Sciences, Edward Washington and Ron Spencer, were AMAZING! They were kind and personable and did their jobs very well. I rode with Edward and was in awe of how he handled our 7th graders. They all loved him and respected him and his rules. Thank you for a great ride!

I have been meaning to send you my feedback on the transportation services provided by Discovery Charters on February 20-21 for our Nor Cal College Tour. It was great to have Isaac Lopez as the driver as he always conducted himself in a courteous and respectful manner. Having a group of high school students on the tours may sometimes be unpredictable and I appreciate Isaac being flexible with me.

Just a quick note of thanks to your drivers, Edward Washington, Ron Spencer, and Gwen Jones, for making our field trip to the Exploratorium in San Francisco a wonderful experience. All were professional, knowledgeable, and kind. Our trip was delayed a bit due to traffic, but our drivers were able to get us to our destination as quickly and safely as possible. Please let them know they are appreciated!
