YAKIMA, Wash. -- The people on the bus go "Hooray, hooray, hooray!"

That's because three students are regional winners in the annual Educational Service District 105 School Bus Poster Contest.

The three winners, who each received $25, are: first-grader Alexia Rucker from Wapato's Adams Elementary School, third-grader Isabel Gonzalez from Zillah's Hilton Elementary School, and sixth-grader Jorge Barragan from Zillah Intermediate School.

Each designed a poster to go with the contest theme, "Cross in view -- It's the right thing to do."

Rucker showed children walking safely in a crosswalk, Gonzalez's poster had a fruit tree, a dog and a school bus stopped on the street, and Barragan designed his poster looking down from a bird's-eye view on a yellow bus.

More than 100 kindergarten-through eighth-grade students produced posters for this year's contest, sponsored by the Washington Association for Pupil Transportation to encourage school bus safety.

Rucker's teacher is Terra Reise, Gonzalez's is Jana Winters and Barragan is taught by Tim Strother.
