One of my biggest fears......

Never rode the bus as a kid. Was one of the ones who walked uphill in the snow both ways!! My 3 kids get on one everyday and I say a prayer each time.

My prayers go out for all those involved.

It was the driver's fault. He has had several accidents in the last couple of years at other schools he worked at. So this time he will probably lose his job driving a school bus again.
