BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - The superintendent of the St. Helena Parish School District has gone viral on social media!

Dr. Kelli Joseph posted to LinkedIn about getting her CDL, which is a commercial driver’s license, so she can step in and drive a school bus if necessary! As of January 2, the post has close to 18,000 likes and more than 1,500 comments.

The post reads, “Yep. I’m sharing it with the world because it wasn’t easy!! I finally got my CDL!!! I’m ready to drive the school bus. 🚌🚌🚌🚌🥳🥳. Why? Because we wear many hats in St. Helena Parish and all jobs are equally important. Superintendents are not excluded from the “all other duties assigned” clause. Call me Bus Superdriver. 🤣🤣 Let’s get it!!!”

This goes to show how school leaders are coming up with some creative ways to deal with personnel shortages, even if that means stepping in and doing it themselves.

“We are heavily invested in dual enrollment at St. Helena College and Career Academy. Our buses send groups of learners to Northshore Community College three times each day. It’s always a struggle to get a driver. We also have issues with our regular bus routes and athletic trips. So, I decided to get my CDL to fill the need. I’m just doing what we always do in St. Helena…we see a need and we fill it. I won’t ask any of our employees to do something I’m not willing to do. No job is too big or small. My hands are on deck!” said Dr. Joseph to WAFB.

Congrats to Dr. Joseph from all of us here at Channel 9!
