Pembroke Central School District (New York)
The best part of my job is my team. I love coming to work every day. I love sitting at the table and talking to them. I’m so thankful for them. I just want to talk about my culture. The people are great. I think it’s really important that you form a relationship with your employees. They’re willing to help. It make them feel important if you go out and say, ‘Hey, what’s your opinion on it?’ It make them feel a part of the group.
Julie Lawson, Transportation Supervisor
Being named Top Transportation Team means a lot! It makes us super proud to show the country how amazing our team is. And when we learned that we had won, we were extremely happy! I mean, win it once okay. Cool when it twice awesome, but three times – we must be fabulous.

Here is what the Pembroke CSD team had to say:
We are a very dedicated and fun-loving family.
I retired back in 2023 and here I am, back subbing for the past three years. And no joke, I regretted retiring! So happy to be here.
I enjoy working with all my teammates. We all pull together to make sure the days go smoothly.
My job and work environment are very rewarding and fulfilling.

We are led by a wonderful transportation director who works hard at keeping us a well-oiled bus company.
