| I just moved here, my kid is in the northwest cluster. I’m scared to use the bus due to fights. Should I be worried? |
| Good god, your precious snowflake can’t handle the bus?? |
| It’s good |
| *buses |
| You're fine, your kid is fine, nwhs cluster is fine, get off this site before the fear mongers get to you |
More like W school parents. |
| I never heard of any fights in the bus and my two children have graduated in the past 2 years (though not at NWHS). Is this a common problem? |
No. It’s someone trolling or someone clutching their pearls about sending their kid into the real world. |

The answer to this question is: It depends.
It depends on the cohort of kids riding the bus, your bus driver/attendants, and school's administrative team. I think fighting issues on the bus are the worst at the middle school level. I don't hear as many issues on elementary school buses. |
| Not op, but does MCPS school buses have a/c in summer or heater in winter? For elementary school aged kids. |
Heat, yes. Not sure about AC but the windows open. |

No AC
No fights My kids took MCPS buses all thru ES, MS and walked to HS. I did see HS boys fighting after school on people's lawns a few times. Whitman boys. |
