We are proud to announce our ACOVSD 2026 Classified Employee of the Year.
Carla Wesley, a dedicated school bus driver and on-board instructor, has been a trusted presence behind the wheel for the Peebles School Attendance Area for the past 18 years. She would be the first to tell you that a school bus is more than just a vehicle—it’s a classroom on wheels. Through her care, consistency, and commitment, she creates a safe and positive start and end to each student’s day.
Carla was honored during this morning’s celebration and presented with a $1,000 award by Chris Harover, President of the National Bank of Adams County..
Congratulations, Carla, and thank you for the incredible impact you make on our students and school community each day!
