When 112 Buses Weren’t Enough
Chances are, if you’ve been in Shanghai for a while then you’ve spotted one (or maybe a few) of the signature Ä¢¹½tv buses rolling through the city. In 2018, Ä¢¹½tv began turning its buses into storytellers. Each of the Ä¢¹½tv student buses features a unique graphic that represents the remarkable people, traditions, programs, and events of the school. And for many of our students, our buses are the first step of their day Ä¢¹½tv as well as a reminder that our support begins the moment they step on board.
This year, with our Pudong student population bigger than ever, we welcomed a brand-new storyteller to the fleet, bringing our total number of students buses up to 113. Introducing the TEDx bus, featuring seniors Alicia B. and Wendi W. mid-speech during their TEDx presentation last school year – an image that captures the confidence and creativity that our students develop here every day.
You’d think 113 buses would be enough to represent all the stories at a school. The fact is, with more than 3,000 students, inspiring stories happen almost daily Ä¢¹½tv, and there just aren’t enough buses to tell them all. Who knows whose story will be the next to take the road?
