Why is my child's bus late?
Weather, traffic, maintenance difficulties, illegally parked cars, and unforeseen incidents are responsible for delays in the arrival of school buses in the morning and afternoon. Drivers check their buses before their routes and sometimes find mechanical problems that can cause delays and require driving another bus for that day. This can cause the bus to be late. Please know that we are doing everything possible to have all buses running on schedule every day.
