For the past eleven years, Jim Anderson has dedicated his time to driving a bus filled with Vanguard students. When asked if he liked working for Vanguard he said, “Yes, very much so. If I had to drive for another school I would retire. Vanguard has great staff and students.”
To many students Jim is someone to confide in. Many believe he is more then just their bus driver; he is a friend. Vanguard student Art Tarnowski said, “You can talk to Jim about anything whether it be school, cars, motorcycles, just life.”
To add on Vanguard student Evey Dudek said, “Jim is fabulous. You can talk to him about anything. Plus, he’s hilarious.”
Jim is very loyal and reliable when it comes to his job. Patrick Kain, Vanguard counselor, stated, “What I really like about Jim is he’s really flexible in the fact that Vanguard changes its program very often and he never complains about it.”
“ Jim is the kind of guy that is very much down to earth,” said Vanguard student Nikki Harper. In his spare time he takes interest in antique motorcycles, listening to Rod Stewart's record Storyteller, and eating a plate of Italian style pasta.
Vanguard students and staff appreciate all that Jim does and for his unfaltering personality. We are proud that District 214 is recognizing him for all his hard work. On behalf of Vanguard: We love you Jim and we can’t be more proud.
