School surprises bus driver with new car and raise

- You can see why someone might hate being a school bus driver: the early hours when the weather sours and the abundance of responsibility combined with the absence of eyes in the back of your head. Nevertheless, as we first reported last May, Curtis Jenkins loves delivering these little ones to Lake Highlands elementary in Dallas, Texas. This holiday season, the school thanked him back. Steve Hartman reports.

"He's the father I always wanted."
*_its enough to make a grown man cry_*

*get back in there, tear.*
Go ahead tear
And that’s okay
I'm proud to like every comment....and THATS okay 🥺
"He's the father I always wanted, I wish my dad could've been like that"
that broke my heart
@British Boi no
i-
I felt that....
Ditto! 😭
Imagine how bad the dad feels
Update on Curtis : He now own he’s own business and is still helping other
That’s amazing :) do you know where I could read more about this? I’ve always wanted to see how he’s doing recently after being recommended this video after so long.
+Unknown Person That is AWESOME!
What an Amazing man! I would love to meet him someday. God Bless his Pure Soul.
@@dnh.828 My favorite source
Curtis I hope you're still doing really great. I truly believe you actually talk I truly believe you helped the kids get a sense of respectfulness to everyone. Thank you so much for being you!
"He's the father that I've always wanted." It brought tears to my eyes to hear the little guy speak his truth, because I also grew up without a father. Hopefully, he will grow up to be a good dad. Mothers should not have to raise their children alone, and most importantly, the kids deserve to have their fathers.
Suprised the left haven't had you arrested for daring to say children need moms AND dad's... Something common sense and decency commands

That kid that wished him to be his dad almost made me cry

“ He’s the father I always wanted “ that was touching when he said that
Touching
Very touching
Yati The Prince What about the “he is the mother I’ve always wanted “?😀
Scott Horvath good manners and civility must be normal in a society not exceptional.
We must call out people who behave badly in the society not act ignorant and detached in the name of civility. Trying to reward people who behave nicely doesn’t make the world a better place. It will only empower bad behavior and normalize it.
”He is the dad I never had ” Placed tears inside of my eyes.
Feel it
Made me tear up, Wow!
Who is cutting the onions?
We were in the same school last year, and he got bullied but i never knew why
Did anyone say that? I watched the vid twice no one said that I must be deaf
"He's the father I always wanted."
THAT IS SO SAD AND WHOLESOME
This is a man of God, and we need more like him.
yes you can really tell he is inspired by the words of Zeus

Why did your farther not like you?
Well no offe ce but pls answer?
I was in this kids same boots at one point
World is a better place with people like him.
This man makes me feel so nostalgic :)
He's what I want to be to others, and you know, he is showing the character that Jesus has on others, and he's just and good in everything he does.
VERT TRUE
MAYBE LIFE WOULD BE BETTER IF HAD A SCHOOL DRIVER LIKE HIM
2000:th like
Curtis is one of the people that will be sitting very close to God in Heaven, I'm sure. None of these children will ever forget him. What a beautiful man. 💛💛💛
Yes indeed I had tears in my eyes when boy said that he wish his father was like his bus driver.
Yes!!!! God bless him!!!!
Amen
He is one of my neighbors and he loves the support thank y’all

this brought tears to my eyes.. damn.. why some parents be heartless.. may god protect this bus driver
3:12- Did you see how happy & proud the little boy is..showing his gift to his Mom while her sister is busy biding 'goodbye' to the driver..
Thats pure gratitude....
If ONLY everyone could be like him, then the world would be such a nice place to live in.
when he said “ I wish my father could’ve been like that “ 💔
I know! I got my cry in for the day...
Me too.
That got me crying
Warm to the Bone!

This man doesn’t care about money. He cares
About the kids and seeing them smile.
It’s very wholesome
Wished my father was more like that
Diavolo sorry to hear
wished my bus driver was like that
@@Avianca-rr3rf dont we all?
ExpiredMilk I don’t, in my school we don’t have buses to take you to school or anywhere in the UK
When that boy said he's the father I always wanted I burst in to tears my heart ripped out of my chest .... good people still exits in this world.
Yes that's right, my friend. There are more of us good people than there are bad.and one day, we will be standing tall when all the evil people are gone for ever.good will always triump over evil, every time!
Too much 🤣🤣
Too much :’D
I'm glad that there is a news station spreading good things that good people do, it really is a rare thing to see in todays world.
We need it more than ever.
Yes, one of the things I appreciate CBS even though they are among the worst in politics however amazing with reporting on positive stuff.
The dislikes are from the kids that go on the other buses.
Lol 😂 😂 😂 😂
U sont blame them being jealous. Im getting oetty jelly ngl
🤣🤣
😆
My bus driver is a comedian and is never late
Kids when they have different bus driver: where is Curtis??
He probably said his goodbyes there's no way he had a connection with all those kids and left without telling them anything
Right.
I don't think he was removed from driving, just given extra duties and a raise with it
God damn
I didn’t know this comment would blow up
Curtis Axel
Bus drivers don’t get paid enough,and the responsibility is enormous
jesus that poor kid saying he wishes his dad was like the driver....if that doesnt break you u got no heart
He's reaching so many innocent lives and teaching them love and kindness...
Vishwas_M That's the way Jehovah God created us to be .
The little kid when he says he wished his dad could have been like that he looks so sad and I feel so bad for him
seek advantage of the other person & not yourself,more blessing in giving than recieving
That kid that talk's about his father just brakes my heart to see how he is struggling.
Breaks mine too!
Worst nightmare: Have your kid refer to you the way this one did.
I couldn't hold my tears...
saba1978 ... Lets hope that the kindness and love he receives from this role model changes this young boys life forever and keeps him on the right track.
Karen Younger ... Tears here too but he understands the importance of what his bus driver does for him. He is a wise kid who needs that male father figure around. Bless this man!
Bruh when he said he wished his dad could be like that I think a lot of us have felt that
That's how all school buss bus drives should be, nice to kids. When that boy said that he's like a father I've always wanted.That is a really shocking. For a kid to say that. That guy's got to be a really nice and sweet guy.
You can tell he doesn’t do it for recognition. He does it out of love for others.
💯💯💯
Gotta be the love of Christ
Srtyvernice
Yes having t shirts made with what the girl likes isnt something for attention. That's a love kind of gift. Him giving them attention and knowing how they are individually is awesome. I remember having a few bus drivers as a kid who I loved. Would be one of the last stops head up front and just chat and you saw how they were as people. Can go a long way for a kid. Especially a kid in a rough home.
Someone get him a hat that says, “WORLD’S BEST BUS DRIVER”
Oh God yes please
or a mug(micheal scott reference)
Ayush Soni how about both?
NONYA Business that would be cool, but I think a hat to show the world.
@@GhostOfKotori please, don't use God's name in vain!
A truly great American. The ultimate father figure every kid around the world would love to have. I salute you. May God bless and protect you and all your students always. Cheers!
So Awesome! I was a Bus Driver here in NC years ago. I told my kids that I am they're guardian while they were on my bus. ☺️ I went into a store one day and one of my students within 13yrs later still remembered me. She said I was the best bus driver they ever had since I left. That was the greatest, honoring moment I ever had. Please be kind, caring and safe driving while those children are in your care. Yes I would do it again.
If that little boys dad is reading this, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Smokey Willy who
@@inactive2378 a boy said in the video He's the father I always wanted. His dad is either gone or doesn't treat him well
His mother got divorced and I’m guessing she took the kids
just because he left doesn't mean he was a bad guy -_-
You're a stupid idiot.
i hope he's doing alright with covid :( all the kids must miss him
I'm a school bus driver and I miss my kids soooooo much. BNHS
@@sakeenasmith3164 aww im sorry about that.. please stay safe and healthy! 💕
@@tartarsauce1387 that was my first driving job , driving a school bus , I LOVED IT , especially the little ones , the would Draw pictures for me , gave me (3 musketeer bars) , gave me a bus load of { ooohs } when they saw me kiss my girlfriend , one morning , the highschool kids , while , a little mouthy back then , still listened , mostly .I only had to "eject" one , REALLY mouthy student , yes , I made him walk the 3 blocks home , as I we followed him\watched him go inside , (wasn't so mouthy afterwards) his mom thanked me , l8r ,
I've been a truck driver , for 30 years , that was my favorite job !
@@sakeenasmith3164 what's BNHS?
Covid 19
When the bus driver set the tone for a positive, inclusive, peaceful, & community oriented ride for the students; he set the atmosphere so that no bullying, no mistreatment, no exclusion, no loneliness, & no harassment takes place on his bus. This does wonders for kids.
"He's the father I always wanted..." 😭😭😭😭😭😭
“Curtis made his job important” kinda a back handed compliment. His job is important. He’s transporting hundreds of kids, our future.
Yeah but that statement was delivered after saying that most people view certain jobs more important than others. I don't think that was meant back handed.
Very important he gets a seat belt on a school bus
@@randysollis1207 are you saying seat belts are important on buses, because i -- a school bus driver -- and the NHSTA would disagree.

Well thats 99.999999999% of the population then
@@user-ot7jd9dt7t you were actually scary close. Assuming the bus has 25 kids and the world has 7B people the number is 99.999999996
Adam Johnson XD
Honestly, these are the things you hope to do as a teacher as well. The goal is that, even if the kids don’t have a loving home, they have a caring community that they return to every single day. It warms my heart to see that this bus driver is going way beyond expectations and creating such a community on his bus as well. The kids will be all the better for it.
Finally a man who can be trusted around children.
he was my friend back in high school, very generous and humble person.
Omg
Sure, I'm totally going to believe you
@@bigabi2774 shut up. the world is a small place. U should keep that to yourself. You never know.
@@sashathornton523 You shut up. The world is a small place with 7 billion people and more than 2 billion on TH-cam, it's a bit of a coincidence that on so many people, that guy just happens to find the video and not be lying, its even funnier how you believe anything someone tells you just because "it could be". If there's no proof, he's not.
@@sashathornton523 I was also his friend in high school in case you didn't know, at least "I could be".
The 18 dislikes need to go to the doctor and see if they have a heart
@gregg liles exactly!!!
What popular video doesn’t have a dislike?
@Bone Jones other than the possibility of bots, people will always see faults in things. Some may dislike cause the video is too cheerful (those who think life is a meme), because of the gifts he got and some may dislike by accident and probably not bothered to correct it or didn't even realize, i'm just tired of people complaining about the dislike, it's nothing new as long as the dislikes aren't significant. Oh and obviously some may be evil people.
Love that man .
🌟🏆🥉
Perfect example of what all bus drivers should be like
His eyes like a ocean of happiness but i heard that the most kindest person, hurts the most.

This guy inst just a Bus driver he is a teacher of Human Relations for those kids!
Absolutely true
Not hard to notice it is explicitly said, the reason why you probaly knew it
And an absolute rolemodel!

His bus is a leadership institute. I'm glad I watched this.
This man showed that with a big heart anything is possible
Money too
An honorable black man . Respect 🙏
It’s a relief to see that the media isn’t just showing negative stories about black men. Great story.
People with the biggest hearts are usually the people who have every reason to be bitter, but choose kindness instead.
Can't agree more
Amen
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” - Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

@@johnP0908 : I understand all too well. I have driven a school bus for way too long and am past the “ driven crazy” point. 🤪 I actually thought that was pretty funny how they zoomed in on the children at that precise moment. 😁
To the little boy: even if you don't have a dad, there's still a lot of people who can make you feel the love that he cannot give. Keep fighting ❤
Imagine how many good human beings are being raised in that school bus, those kids are getting life lessons from this "man". I'm pretty sure these kids will mirror this man.
Why did u put man I quotes
cause he black huh? you racist or something?
Yup. What he is giving them at THIS stage of their life? Utterly priceless.
Kev you just HAD to assume racism didn’t you
Why is man in quotes? I'm confused

If only we had more people like him he's truly a blessing hats off to mr Jenkins I wish him all the best now and allways
Amen! What a guy!💙💙
« I wish my dad was like that » awee little man 😭❤️
When a man loves something he makes it his responsibility, this man loves his job because the smiles he gets back from the kids are worth the low pay.
Can you Imagine , that a Bus Driver cares more about the kids than some Parents do !!! Well done Sir you are a Man with a BIG 💛 OF GOLD . 👏👏👏 I take my 🎩 off to you .

@@festiveastolfo735 A religion is what the scribes and parishes had who killed Jesus. They only ever followed the law, man's traditions thinking they could be justified or made holy by it when the onlyyyyyy way were justified is by Jesus dying on the cross for our sins and taking God's wrath. Which honestly breaks my heart that He did 'cause He seemed in a way scared to go through it because for once His Father would turn away from Him. And im amazed at how even though were so unfaithful and disobedient, He still wants to be with us. He still forgives us, loves us and wants us and it really makes me happy that I know that someone wants me like that. Were suppose to have a relationship with Him but its everyone's choice to choose whether they want to know Him or not
"My mum got divorced when I was 4" "He's the father that I always wanted" -- this made me shed tear.

Morris Brown was my high school bus driver. He would let us take turns playing our mixed tapes and he would councilor all us kids on our hour long bus ride home. We would take turns sitting behind his chair and we’d tell him about our troubles and he’d give us advice. He was never wrong. I don’t know what happened to him but he has become one of the main figures in my life of a caring and loving person that showed compassion to kids that just needed someone to listen to them.
