 The Bus Trip Across Georgia began in 1993 as a way to celebrate achievement in our public schools and to share best practices with a wide range of influencers. No one thought then it would become a tradition in our state. Seventeen successful years later it is still fulfilling that initial two-part goal. Here are past Bus Trip videos that will take you inside many achieving schools where you will learn first hand what makes them winners. The Partnership thanks Georgia Public Broadcasting for their production assistance.  One particular child - Robert from the International Studies Charter School in Albany - stole our hearts on Bus Trip 16 as he explained why an education is so important. Let him tell you in his own words then watch the Bus Trip 16 video to get a better idea what this exciting event is all about. The Bus Trip 17 video is now in production. |
