Hempstead ISD Transportation Department has selected Kendra Wilson as the 2026 Hempstead ISD Bus Driver of the Year.

School bus drivers have an important role in education. Bus drivers safely transport our students to and from school daily. They are the first school personnel that students see in the morning and the last they see in the afternoon. They help set the tone for students' daily experiences.

The department is also celebrating several students for Best Bus Rider of the Year! Check out the Story: https://tinyurl.com/436z2ydv
