What? 3-4 inches at the most! Back in the day the school bus tires would be chained up and school would go on as normal.
Some kids don’t take the bus. This parent is grateful she doesn’t have to drive.
Maybe “chainin’ ’em up and sendin’ ’em out” was the wrong thing to do! Perhaps we have more mature, level-headed people making the decision.
The roads in SAD58 have been horrific since the rain/ice and have not improved. Add snow on top and that makes them that more treacherous. Damned if they do, damned if they don’t someone has got to complain. The ultimate goal is the safety of the kids. PERIOD!
