3/21/08 Routes Good Friday

In sub bus 9304
AM
SHES- Cody and Cierra were arguing across the aisle again. Destany would not sit up in seat and lied to Kinslei about where to sit. I had just told Destany that Kinslei would sit with her and she wouldn't let her, told her to sit in the seat in front of her. Austin and Michael are too loud together. Head count 35. AAS 7:13am.
BSMS- Keiola and Dustin were smacking each other at the bus stop this morning just like yesterday at school. Unloaded at gym with trenchcoat lady. Head count 44. AAS 8:06am.

PM - got 9504 back this afternoon!
SHES- Christopher and Christen got off with Adam, Loren and Jeramiahs mother as usual, but it did not appear that anyone was home at their house....I think I will get a note to cover in case this happens again. Even though they always get off the bus with this lady, a family member always meets them in the yard, but not today. Breanu and Keanu were arguing over the first seat and generally bickering...I think I will write them up a warning, it is so difficult to drive and listen to this! Head count 41. AABSMS 3:20pm.
BSMS- Kayla, Shamiya and Khalil were too loud. Zsaree and Dominique were arguing on the bus and as he exited, she smacked him really hard, this is a write up. Wesley gets a gold slip for raising windows all week and for helping Angelica with her crutches all week. Head count 48.

3-14-08 ~~TGIF~~

AM
SHES - Good ride. Destany caught the bus at Kinslei's house, and I sat them together well away from Ryan and Jasmine...it worked good. Head count 34. AAS 7:14.
BSMS - Good ride. Briana Brooks got on with an MP3 player, and Maya had a cell phone that kept Kieola and Jasmine hanging out in the aisle and blocking the back door the entire ride to school. Zsaree, Briana Brooks and Maya will get written warnings for electronics. Zsaree had hers on the 7th. I had intended on talking to Bianca as she got on the bus, so that she would not harass the girls all the way to school, but she missed the bus, then her "ride" drove UP THE WRONG WAY INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC on Old Airport...I could not believe it!! I feel like I should write it up but I know that the parent/guardian will be a jerk about it. I'll ask Cindy. So I spoke with Bianca at school, told her the language and actions were not acceptable and that she needs to start making better decisions. I'll write it all up on one write-up. As soon as I sat her down to talk to her, the water works started! I feel terrible, she says that her mother is going to put her in private school yada, yada, yada....I just told her she needs to choose to stay out of trouble.

Per cindy write up Bianca for the way she was brought to the bus (a warning).

3/13/08 Routes *Inspection*

AM
SHES- Very good ride this morning. Nothing from either parent that called in yesterday, but I will take the tape to Cindy, I have made notes where Jasmine is telling her teacher that she did threaten the girl and where the mother boarded my bus, so that Cindy can find them on the tape. Head count 39. AAS 7:15.
BSMS - Good ride. Head count 49. AAS 8:10 Trenchcoat lady was there when I unloaded. We practiced Emergency Evacuation and did it in 1:28 seconds and that was with Angelica on crutches!! WOW!! I also spoke to some of the oldest students about some of the procedures when we evacuate....I'm just taking it slow and making sure they know what to do :)
PM
SHES - As I was going over the daily rules, I asked for "5" and Mariah continued to talk to Breanu and Athena the entire time I was trying to talk, despite what her mother thinks, she just isn't perfect, she is sweet and overall a good kid, just not perfect! Brandon was TA one time, thats not bad for him, but Payton would not face the front which is strange for him...he was TA 3 times! Head count 40. AAS 3:20.
BSMS - Good ride, no complaints from me. But right at the end of the route, Molly and Tabitha and Carol Jane came to the front and they were all very, very upset about more things that Bianca had said. Bianca was so mean to Carol Jane that she had her in tears according to Tabitha. I will move Bianca, write her up and see it through!! Head count 52.

3-12-08 Routes

AM
SHES- Good ride, kept the trouble students in the front except Jasmine, she didn't ride but Natalie and Kayla Dees did! Head count 33. AAS 7:15. Timed Emergency Evacuation 40 seconds!
BSMS - Good ride, we talked about evacuation and predators which is a good reason to listen to adult when evacuating. Head count 48. AAS 8:10 trenchcoat lady was in front of gym wearing a red coat, I unloaded there. Pumped 30 gallons fuel.
PM
SHES - At the school Jasmine's teacher got on the bus to try to take Jasmine's side, when I explained to the teacher that I heard with my own ears, Jasmine threaten Kinslei, she asked Jasmine "did you say that?" and Jasmine said yes. I know that Jasmine is a good student and a good person, but I had to write up a threat that I heard myself! I will keep Kinslei up front and Jasmine and Ryan in the back. Jeremiah didn't ride the bus, he is injured, so his twin brothers (K) had to have a receiver, nobody was at the stop, so I pulled to the driveway and blew the horn. Jeremiah came to the door so I let the twins off and as soon as they got off the steps a woman boarded my bus all the way up the steps and into my face! It was Jasmine's mother and she was mad! I handled her just fine, but I was stern and told her to exit my bus, I explained that I had to get the kids home and she was welcome to call my supervisor, so I gave her Cindy's number, lol. On my way to BSMS, 200 radioed and asked me to call my super after my route, I guess she did call Cindy, rotfl! Trent was bugging Ariel again, I will have to move him up front. Adam was writing on the seat, UGH!! He was using an eraser thank goodness, but these twins are gonna kill me! Heat count 41. AAS 3:22.
BSMS - Before we left the school Kayla was hanging out the window yelling/threatening another girl, directly in front of a teacher (short female with whitish grey hair). I yelled 3 times trying to get Kayla to be quiet but she totally ignored me, so when she called me to tell me that she didn't have enough room in her seat, I told her: "You ignored me when I called you, so I am doing the same". She half-sat half-stood in her seat. The teacher boarded my bus to tell me that Kayla was having a bad day and had already started with Antarica and she turned to Antarica and Antarica smiled and said "I'm gonna be good" and she was, the entire ride! After Antarica got off the bus, I asked Kayla to come talk to me, and I explained to her that she owes me the same courtesy as she expects, and asked her about this other girl, she siad it wasn't over with the other girl and it would prolly go down at school, she assured me not on the bus. But she said she can't make any promises about Antarica, I told her if anything goes down on the bus, there will be a lot more room in the seat where she sat and the seat where Antarica sat, cause they would be off the bus! After most of the students had gotten off the bus Molly and Brianna Blair talked to me about Biance. Molly said that something is wrong with Bianca because she has been super mean to people all day in school and on the bus she called Molly (one of her best friends) a white bitch. I can't even remember everything that Molly and Brianna told me so I am going to listen to the conversation again on the tape and write Bianca up for language and such. Head count 54.

After I got home I called Cindy and it seems that Mariah's mother is complaining. Saying that I have 4 students in her seat and that she has to stand??? WHAT???? Mariah was standing, turned around, talking to Jillian and Morgan.....all three were given bus rules to write and I only asked Mariah to write 1 sentence!! Next time it will be a straight write up, NO MORE WARNINGS!!!!

SHES- I moved the students that I had trouble with last week to the front of the bus. Jasmine said that her mother is going to the school about Kinslei spitting in her face.
