“The weather was terrible, and we dismissed a bunch of children. They got on the school bus, and the driver didn’t leave,” Williams said. “It was getting worse, I was losing trees, and I got on the bus and decided we should take the children back inside the school.”
Williams said Bryant, who was a School Safety Patrol officer at the time, was the patrol on the bus. She told him he would have to lead the students into the school, and she would bring up the rear.
“He talked to the children and told them they would have to follow him, and he led all the students to safety,” she said.
For that act of responsibility and cool headedness, Guilday presented 11-year-old Bryant, with the Outstanding Safety Patrol Medal of Valor Award and certificate.
