A Texas bus driver is being praised for going above and beyond the call of duty for the comfort of his pint-sized passengers.
Jerry Martin, who is a bus driver for the Copperas Cove Independent School District in Texas, noticed that one of the bus stops on his route had become overgrown with tall grass.
Rather than allow his students to wait amongst the weeds, he grabbed a lawn mower and took it upon himself to trim the surrounding area.

According to the school district’s Facebook page, the yard had fallen into disrepair because the property had not been inhabited for several years—so the administrators were definitely impressed by Martin’s thoughtful gesture.
“PICTURE OF THE WEEK!” wrote the district. “Bus driver Jerry Martin cut the grass at one of his bus stops so the students don’t have to stand in the weeds while waiting for the bus. The home is vacant and the yard is not being maintained. Three cheers for Mr. Martin!”
