When asked what she's hoping for this school year, Holley kept it simple: "Everyone stays healthy."
More than two decades of service to Midwest Central is an incredible accomplishment, and we are grateful for the care, dedication, and commitment Holley brings to our students each day.

This year marks an incredible 30 years working in the transportation department. Over the years, Lori has worn many hats, serving as a school bus driver for 27 years, a School Bus Driver Trainer, a Safety Coordinator, and now, for the past three years, as a monitor on the Schramm/Rogers bus.
Lori's service extends far beyond the bus route. Throughout her time with the district, she has assisted with school registrations, helped route buses, and even delivered meals and homework to students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her willingness to step in wherever needed has made her an invaluable part of the Midwest Central family.
When asked what she enjoys most about her current role, Lori shared that she loves interacting with students and appreciates the opportunity to connect with them in a different way than she did as a driver. She is looking forward to "an excellent, safe and amazing year" and says there is absolutely nothing she dislikes about her work.
Thirty years of dedication, dependability, and service is an incredible milestone. Lori's knowledge of the district, commitment to students, and positive attitude have made a lasting impact on generations of Midwest Central families.
Thank you, Lori, for 30 years of service to Midwest Central. We are grateful for all you have done and continue to do for our students and schools.
