1. Turn on radio on bus to listen to news (or music)? Several times. Students (younger students) who don't listen to news at home are on the bus ride home.

2. Hand out a flower to students as they leave bus. Not sure why. this was done a long time ago way before "Valentine's day" week. One time thing.


My kid's did not, which is too bad. They both sound like good things for the children to experience.



A rose?


Are you expecting the drivers to purchase roses for up to 60 kids (which is the max # to be seated on the busses)?


Another clueless poster. Do you know that there are more than that many students on a bus, some routes with more than others. students on one another in small seats (think 6ft HSers). Spend some time off the screen and into the real world.


Not clueless at all. I am an educator. The busses are supposed to seat up to 60 students. If more than that are being seated, that's dangerous.

However, that wasn't the point of my post. Parents expect support staff members, who make the least amount of $ in MCPS to be buying their children roses to gand out. And most drivers have 2-3 routes per day so that could be up to 180 roses? Talk about clueless! 🤡


Which parents are expecting their kid to receive a rose? Not any parent we know. Obviously you didn't read. The question was had your kid's bus driver given kids a rose and it said it was a one time thing. R-E-A-D, clueless poster

What did she do if they didn't? Pull over on side of road? Turn back the bus to school so they would?

When I was in high school, my bus driver listened to Howard Stern every morning. I... learned a lot

It may have improved but at one time in mcps, a bus had students sitting on the floor/aisle of bus (no not a troll post).
