Monday is School Bus Practice Run

Bus drivers will run their bus routes at the scheduled times in the morning and afternoon the day before students return so they know where to stop and how long the routes take. They’ll follow real-time conditions at every stop by activating the stop arm, flashing lights, and opening the door to replicate loading.
