The Bus Driver
15 Years Experience
South, ..
Female, 37
I have been a bus driver since late 2006. I know the inside story, the scoop, the down low dirt of what it takes to be a bus driver, how to handle kids and adults, and how to survive on the "streets" so to speak. I used to have a blog, feel free to browse it or ask me a question here.
Not so much seen as heard of happening. Lots of inappropriate sexual stuff can happen with older students on a bus.
Share Answer: 
Yes. Given that it's been posted and a fairly widespread practice that for the protection of yourself and others that face masks must be worn, it doesn't surprise me in the least. There are many people out there who feel they are above what the governments can tell them what to do and whom simply won't follow rules. (Fake service dogs are a perfect example.)
Share Answer: 
Yes. It is. Sometimes driveways are all we have that give us enough space to turn around at the end of a road.
Share Answer: 
It depends on the district. Most districts have rules about when and how early to pick up students.

Is it easier to learn to swim as a child or adult?
Honestly I don't know. I've only had experience with one strobe light which is operated by one switch inside the bus.
Share Answer: 
Someone's gotta do it. It's either that or the district offers remote learning options for the teenagers and not everyone succeeds that way.
Share Answer: 
There are many families that do not have vehicles snd do not have access to the internet at home. Having buses serve these neighborhoods and children serves three purposes. One, it puts food in the hands of children that would otherwise go hungry. Two, it allows teachers to hand out and collect homework packets for at home learning. Finally, three, it allows the district to lay eyes on kids they would normally keep tabs on during the school year to ascertain whether or not they need more help.
