South-Western City School District

Tonight, our Transportation Staff ended their day by Lighting up the Lot in remembrance of our beloved Transportation Supervisor Mr. Tim Cox who passed away this past Friday and in support of his family. ?????????? Mr. Cox’s career exemplified a commitment to excellence and service. From coordinating transportation logistics to and from school and athletic events to implementing bus safety programs, he was a leader who worked tirelessly to support the district’s mission. Mr. Cox also was instrumental in implementing and facilitating the district’s annual First Time Rider Event for families of preschool and kindergarten students to experience riding a bus together for the first time each August. His career began as a school bus driver, followed by roles in emergency medical services, and later as a transportation branch manager before joining SWCSD in 2007. Tim’s legacy as a leader, colleague, and friend will not be forgotten. The South-Western City School District extends its deepest sympathies to Mr. Cox’s family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time. For our friend Tim…????
