This month’s Whitley County Consolidated Schools’ (WCCS) bus driver spotlight is Jessica Geiger. Jessica grew up on a farm in Union Township. Prior to driving a school bus for WCCS, Jessica worked on the family farm. She is married and currently resides in Union Township.
Jessica has been driving a school bus for WCCS for 6 months, and works part-time at Parker Grace Tea Room in Roanoke.
We asked Jessica the following questions:
What is the favorite thing you enjoy about driving a school bus?
Interacting with the kids, and getting to know the other drivers.
What kind of hobbies do you have?
Traveling, hiking and spending time with her husband and dogs.
What is your favorite restaurant?
Senior Fajitas
What is your favorite college team?
Not a big sports fan, but if she had to choose, it would be IU.
Thank you, Jessica!

Coesse's three robotics teams planned, built, and continually improved their robots during the last 4 months. They were able to compete in their first competition this weekend in Huntington to show what they could do against 28 other teams. Overall, they all did amazing and improved their skills! Our 5th-grade team was even able to make it in the finals and ended up placing 5th.
They are all looking forward to improving their designs so they are ready for their final competition in March.
Congrats, Eagles!
