What was your first year like?

Asked by You are the right one ?? about 7 years ago

A lot of learning. I had to think outside the box and then learn on a steep learning curve to manage students.

Okay so I heard somewhere that a bus driver can not break up a fight. My bus driver a few years ago did and nothing happened to her. She still drove so she did not get fired, suspended, or put in jail

Asked by Karen about 7 years ago

It depends on the district policies and is generally left up to the personal call of the driver in charge. For example, if I have two middle school or high school kids fighting, I will call the cops. But if the kids are elementary, scrawny and tiny, I'll intervene before they beat the snot out of each other.

Can the bus driver be responsible for pressing charges. Lets say there was a assault on the bus. The victim did not wish to press charges and the police where not going to arrest if no one pressed charges. Can the driver press charges?

Asked by James about 7 years ago

If the victim doesnt want charges pressed no. If the victim was also the bus driver then yes.
