Title: Are School Bus Drills Still A Thing?
Post by: Buzz on October 26, 2023, 05:55:46 PM

Has anybody done an actual school bus drill so far this year? State law says the first one is to be done during the first seven days of school ... which almost no school does. The second is supposed to be done between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31, and the third in the spring.

Not having had one at P.S. 4 I asked one of the aides about it. She said they had a "virtual" school bus drill earlier in the year. Is this the way it's done now? (I don't think anybody would complain.) Anybody?

A couple of drivers weighed in on this when I saw them after work. (Why they don't post the same on here I'll never understand.) Basically they confirmed both ... that they've had to do actual bus drills and that at least one catholic school has been conducting virtual bus drills in the auditorium for years.
