Transportation staff at Fort Worth ISD sent apologies to parents after a school bus driver dropped off elementary school kids in the wrong neighborhood.
Rather than getting off the bus a few blocks from their homes, kids from Daggett Elementary School were left nearly a half mile away Friday, on the other side of busy Hemphill St. on the city's south side.An adult outside the bus also tried to explain to the driver he was in the wrong place, but he didn't appear to respond.
It was the second day in a row her daughter was dropped in the wrong spot, she said, and the third time in September. After the first mix-up early in the month she talked to district staff and thought it wouldn't happen again. "We told him, we told him, this was not our stop," she recalled her girls saying."But he told us he didn't care, that he wanted us to get off."
