1/09/08 *still in 9107

AM
SHES- Quiet ride. Arrived at school @7:15am. Head count 28.
BSMS- Quiet ride until the front wheels locked up and the brakes went out on hwy 61 at Flat Rock Road! I stopped in the turning lane to the Flat Rock store when my brake sensor started beeping, turned off the bus and started it again and it went off. The brakes felt fine and we were app 1 1/2 miles from school so I decided to proceed to the school. As soon as I got out onto hwy 61, the front wheels and steering locked up and the brake sensor began beeping again and when I tried to stop the brakes were very stiff and the bus would not slow, so I down-shifted to 1st tried to get off the hwy and ended up getting stopped just off the shoulder in the mud. Then I called for assistance and 9411 Lorrie Newman took my kids to school and the mechanics brought me 9205. It was sooooo clean and drove so good compared to 9107, lol! I proceeded home. Lorrie notified me that the students arrived on time. Head count 50.
PM
SHES- The mileage on 9205 196106 and there was not a pre-trip form started so I started one. I did a complete pre-trip and everything under the hood on this bus looked fresh! You could still smell the paint because the hood had just been painted recently and everything was in good working order! I even had Lance help by working all the lights as I watched to make sure everything was good, finally a good bus! Daisha and Trent were hitting each other. Johnathon was shouting. Samari was eating. Trent was TA. Breanu was TA and OOS. Head count 29.
BSMS- Arrived at school at 3:20pm. Bianca pullled Marcelles' hair, she said it was to get his attention, I would like to believe her, but he pulled hers back. I am not writing either up. Head count 44.
