(STI) (TSX:STB) (NASDAQ:STB), an industry leader in safety and North America's largest independent provider of student transportation services, is celebrating its employees with its annual Employee Appreciation Week during April 24-28.

This year's Employee Appreciation Week theme, ‘Tell a Friend’, focuses on employees sharing their work experiences with friends, family, and others in the community, and telling them about their job, the Company and their experiences, to see if they want to learn about becoming a school bus driver and joining the STI Family.

School district officials and other members of the local communities will be joining STI's employees for many of the events.

"I appreciate all the effort that every employee puts forth on a daily basis to make our company the safest, most reliable student transportation provider in North America. Having our folks ‘Tell a Friend’ and share their experiences with others is a nice way to let people know about the great things we are doing and hopefully grow the STI Family."
