We have kids standing on buses going to our local elementary school.

That's how it was when I was a kid in middle school. The aisle was completely packed.

Yes, so worth the millions spent so a select few kids get picked lottery style - fun and fair for everyone!!

What happens that eventually some people start to carpool in the morning. Then starting next week, activities will kick in, and busses on the way back will be fine.
Enjoy your ride across county.

Honestly! You put your poor kids on these busses - stop bitching.

Meant to say route info so they can figure out which bus!

No, we need to vote for term limits. Email the County Council and say it is unacceptable to run a school system this way!

Yes 4 to a seat on the Ritchie Park to Blair bus

You need to work out a carpool.

Yes, got the same input from my child who is in HS in a NEC school. Extremely crowded bus situation. I hope this issue can improve.

The magnet buses from Eastern are super crowded. They say they are looking into it, but the buses have kids from TPMS, Eastern and Blair across county with way too many kids. I hope they figure it out.

Beverly Farms parent - no problem at our end. My kids and all of their friends have found the bus situation very comfortable. Looks like most routes have brand new buses too - lucky us!

Anyone's kid coming home complaining that the buses are so crowded that kids have to stand in the aisle and sit four to a row?
