SHES - Malik and Kinslei arguing and calling names as they boarded the bus at school, I nipped it and made sure they didn't sit anywhere near each other. Head count 39.
BSMS - AABSMS @ 3:20pm. Kahlil and Martavious had gum but spit it out when I asked. As the buses were pulling out of school, Trey begged several times to get off the bus, I told him NO over and over but he continued to beg and plead, so I informed him that if he got off he would have to find another way home, because the buses were already leaving. He still begged so I opened the door, he said he HAD to get his cell phone. I left him at school and he caught a ride. As I was traveling down Old Airport Rd, slowing to make a stop at Castlegate, Trey ran up beside the bus beating on the side screaming for me to open the door. He was screaming that a dog was chasing him. Because I was in the middle of HEAVY traffic, I immediately activated my 8ways to stop the moving traffic and hopefully keep anyone from getting hurt. Trey boarded the bus got his book bag and then got back off and walked home from there. We were app. 500 ft from his normal stop, so he did not have to walk far, but I am writing him up for a safetly violation. I spoke with cindy about it on Saturday and she agreed about the write up. Kayla got off the bus in tears, she was extremely angry with Zsaree. She told me that she had been holding her tongue and her temper but it was all she could do to sit in her seat and not defentd herself against all the things that Zsaree has been saying. I told her that we needed to talk in detail about this but she was intent in getting off the bus so I told her we would talk about it Monday AM. She agreed. If she has been holding back, then I owe her a gold slip. Head count 45.
