"As long as God's blessing me with life to keep Mr. Herman's Kids going." Mr. Herman the bus driver is known to step away from the wheel and into the classroom to help students learn how to read.Mr. Herman always knew he wanted to be a bus driver. But his new passion is helping children learn how to read.
Herman, who lives in Egg Harbor City, accepted a job in the Middle Township School District in 2014. With a roughly 40-minute commute each day, he was always looking for a way to pass the time in between shifts. Herman communicated with Kindergarten teacher Alexandrea Byron and set up a time to come help the student develop his reading skills. But it wasn't just a one-time thing.
"And it really just exploded into just Mr. Herman being in here and just being such a positive entity in our building."
