We are proud to recognize Noah Street, a 10th grade student at John S. Battle High School, for going above and beyond to help others in his community.
On December 19, a fallen tree blocked the road and left Bus 85 unable to continue its route. After waiting nearly 30 minutes, Noah realized help might be needed. Living nearby, he went home, hopped on his four-wheeler, and returned to the scene to lend a hand.
When he arrived, only one VDOT truck had reached the area. Noah jumped in to help cut and move the tree out of the roadway until additional crews arrived -- allowing traffic to pass and the bus to safely continue its route.
Afterward, Noah rode his four-wheeler back home, walked down the road, and still made it onto the bus to get to school.
This is a true example of kindness, responsibility, and stepping up when it matters most!
