Parents concerned about school bus issues

[@user-eo7le3qr2s]

I feel so bad for all the school bus drivers. What an extremely stressful job.

[@lesliewheeler7071]

Underpaid and underappreciated.

[@poppachoppa8956]

Yeah! We pay them as little as possible and then trust them with our kids life, crazy!

[@CODYORMOE]

No one wants to be a bus driver these days. Kids are out of control and drivers are expected to deal with it while driving safely. Who wants that stress?

[@mcdjinn6975]

And if it's not the kids out of control, it's the parents.

[@diw.824]

Man driving school bus is not an easy job and it's underpaid especially driving them Elementary kids PK-5th Grade.

[@wheretfisnoah]

My district pays 20 dollars an hour for bus drivers now cause we short of like 100 drivers but before that they payed them like 17 and hour.

[@Thefishingplumber]

Must suck taking responsibility for so many’s people’s kids they have a crazy job

[@BirdsAlwaysWin]

I haven’t ever been on a school bus that wasn’t crowded, calm down people

[@philliptorres5944]

15 years ago it was always crowded in high school

[@philliptorres5944]

@Philinease Smith covid please that is such bs in class rooms they need mask. on basketball courts they dont.

[@philliptorres5944]

@Philinease Smith i like how you ignored they arent needed it sports. your whole argument is irrelevant and not mention they have to eat lunch in a cafeteria.

[@philliptorres5944]

@Philinease Smith mask are needed when its convenient and fits the narrative. no sports cant do that then the state will not give the schools money for them activist.

[@philliptorres5944]

@Philinease Smith no no sports comes first in schools. they don't need masks check your so called district your a teacher.

[@stefanienaranjo4477]

I've always been concerned about buses. It's always crowded and no seatbelts. It was like that from kindergarten to graduating. Crazy that they're barely saying anything like this. I would just drop my kids off.

[@corlahasper234]

Houston in general is a “concern”

[@angelwings1961]

Back in the 60's students stood in the aisles front to back, not as many busses back then so they took longer routes to pick up as many kids that they could, I've spent many times standing, trying to hold books and holding on to seats swaying with the bus.

[@paresaalizadeh2423]

Here is an idea.. go pick up your own damn child! Smh

[@betonvale]

😂

[@John-A]

People don't discipline kids these days, I wouldn't want to be a bus driver either.

[@cnlbrett]

We have three students to a seat in elementary. Last year I had more than the legal limit of 77, so I had to drop about 20 students off then return for the rest of the students and finish my route.

[@Pebbles.3]

I've actually had to sit on the bus floor a couple of times. I remember the first time I kneeled in shorts, marks all over my legs when I got up. Actually, now that I check the date of the video, I'm pretty sure it's the exact date I had to do that.

[@peggyg7442]

No one wants to be a school bus driver, because Y'all Don't Raise Your Kids Right.

[@generationx2352]

Exactly 😂 They just have them these days🤣

[@danyellebrazell9836]

[@candysmith8724]

Never had these issues when I was growing up in Katy ISD and now it's mess. My kid said 3 people to a seat for high school in the afternoons. Yikes

[@generationx2352]

That's normal! Book bag's in your lap, not on your back and leg's together.

[@chicanasjourney2205]

I waited two days in a row for an hour for my kiddos. 5 pm-6 pm my kids get out at 3:30

[@generationx2352]

You pushed them out, go and pick them up yourself.

Drive your kid to school if you don’t like it. Kids cost enough of my taxes

[@danyellebrazell9836]

Bah humbug

[@izzynarwhal]

Im in highschool and im being forced to sit 3 to a seat! Ive even had people on my lap this isnt safe for any student!

[@lilmuddr]

A while back here in Little Rock Arkansas it was like $95 a day to be a bus school bus driver. That ain't too bad if you're driving everyday for one or two hours a day. I would do it but the first kid that talked back to me would be banned from ever riding my bus again. Unfortunately we're not allowed to kill them, or spank them, or smack them upside that smirk on their face. The school district would have to sign a contract with me allowing me to ban any kid that acts unruly.

[@willbass2869]

Yeah, killing kids really not a good idea for bus drivers or anyone else to do, dontcha think so?

[@xavierjohnson18]

literally. in spring my school, dekaney is busses are full. we have to sit 3 to a seat and yet they want us to stay away.

[@antifaslayer]

The driving test get harder to pass shortage of all commercial drivers

[@ernestoalfaro1923]

I have the same problem 10 people sitting on the floor

[@ElizabethSilva-gf8ec]

this is happening at the school we are teens full-grown and its three per seat some kids cant even get on because its full and some of us have to sit in the row

[@starmaiden2653]

There has been a bus driver shortage in LCISD well before COVID. And now Having to quarantine after exposure makes it difficult for drivers to return to work, and they are hourly workers. Maybe pay drivers as a salary instead of hourly. That would bring in more applicants.

[@nothx512]

I thought it was 3 to a seat.....but it will decrease as times goes on....trust me....I've been through this so many times with my loved ones kids and family

[@user-kd8hq9wp3h]

Thank God These Spring ISD Schools My Sons Go To Don't Have This Issue Lawd This Is Ridiculous Poor Kids I Pray 🙏Things Get Better Get More Bus Drivers

[@AllaboutMarjorita]

Lamar cisd is my kids school district and my daughter has missed her first period class everyday this week because the buses run so late. Her bus was supposed to be here at 7:35 and they wouldn’t show up until 8:40 and school started at 8:10

[@mkfishing4458]

feel sorry for the bus drivers,stuck hauling the bratty kids that are growing up these days?I'd have to get 6 figures salary and a cage around me,plus i'd have to be allowed to carry pepper spray.

[@jacquelinelewis3441]

What I find it should have buscondoctors in these buses to watch over little kids

[@generationx2352]

[@DARTHDANSAN]

Let’s be real folks who wants to a bus driver …..

[@indistinguishable7259]

You get paid during summer break so it isn't to bad but dealing with kids and their parents is suicide

[@SumAnonymousAcapella]

Ok so if you get onto a wreck you could cause those kids to die. They need and have to have a seat...thats dangerous. Bro what is going on in houston... What the hell.

[@slabslayer258]

4:30 that’s not late our kids get picked up at 6 or 6:30 am and school don’t start till 8:00 and some kids. Don’t get dropped off till 5,30 or 6 and we are town of 2;500 less and if you live within city limits or town you are the last picked up and last dropped off and if you live within mile or less from school the bus doesn’t pick you up you can walk ride bike or be taken to school

[@chiuuuuuuuuuu]

My fbisd bus used to seat 3 students that's for 2 students.

[@stephensalinas6131]

ill just walk but when i have kids ill just drive them

[@loyshaw935]

Then quit complaining and fill out an application. Oh, and I would NEVER let a student sit on the floor. I would sit them 3 to a seat or tell them I will drop off and come back. Its NEVER an option to comprimise a students safety. And yes, im a bus driver
