An ECISD parent said her elementary school kids regularly wait for a middle school bus to take them home.
SAN ANTONIO — Wednesday, ECISD mother Margaret Elizondo received a familiar phone call from the school district. There would not be a bus available for Oak Crest Elementary School and her student would be sent home on the middle school bus instead. Elizondo said it’s been this way for three weeks and the school district still didn’t have enough drivers.
The parent said ECISD had tried to create a staggered bus schedule so some elementary schools let out earlier and drivers have more time to drop kids off. She said it was often not successful and her elementary school kids were still riding with middle school kids. KENS 5 reached out to ECISD on Tuesday about the driver shortage. The district said they are working to hire more drivers and some of their drivers are currently handling multiple routes to cover all the campuses.
