Students Help Bus Drivers Stay Cool
|
Students at Metro High School took it upon themselves to try and help Missouri Central bus drivers beat the heat! They've been distributing ice cold water at pickup each day. (And the drivers have also been getting some cool down time in the teachers' lounge before hitting the road!)
|

|
|
Throughout the week, bus stops and times were adjusted frequently as we provided support to drivers who were particularly challenged by five hours a day in record-breaking heat. We want our drivers to be in top form on the road and are working to provide substitutes or alternate transportation. We know this has placed a hardship on many families. We apologize sincerely for the inconvenience and thank you for your support. Please know that our transportation team is working tireless to stay on top of things and notify families of any changes has quickly as possible. Learn more here.
