Mr. Larry Kerr - March 2024 Support Staff of the Month

Director of Operations, Mr. Keith Isaacs, is pleased to announce that Mr. Larry Kerr has been selected as March’s “Support Staff of the Month.” 

Larry, a FCCSC bus driver, has dedicated 20 years to transporting students to and from field trips, athletic events, and school. 

Mr. Kerr was nominated for this honor by multiple teachers and students. When asked why Larry should be considered for this recognition, they responded, “He is kind, encouraging, helpful, and punctual. He makes sure that we are at our events on time. He has a smile every time we walk onto his bus and takes the time to ask the students their names and has conversations with them. Larry goes above and beyond any expectations of a bus driver. He always makes sure the students are comfortable (hot/cold). Larry is always concerned with the well being and safety of all of his passengers. He asks the athletes if they want to stop and get something to eat before or after games. In fact, he paid for all of their food on occasion. He goes well beyond what a ‘normal’ bus driver is expected to do. Larry is one of a kind and definitely an asset to our school corporation.”  

Outside of work, Larry enjoys spending time with his eleven grandchildren and occasional trips to McDonald’s for a diet coke. 

When asked what the best part of his job is, Mr. Kerr stated, “The kids, without a doubt. They are just great! I’ve been transporting most of them for seven years or more. We get to share jokes and talk about how their day went. Brittany and Melissa in the transportation department are great as well.” 

The purpose of the “Support Staff of the Month” program is to recognize outstanding Franklin County Community School Corporation Support Staff who demonstrate dedication to his/her job, school, students, and community.
