Bus splits over while wearing 58 elementary school students and marks second school bus accident in less than one week

Over the past three days, there have been two bus accidents in Texas’ Cleveland Independent School District.

Parent Marisol Castillo told Khou 11 that the incident made her wonder if it is safe for her children to go to the bus to school.

“I came through, on my way home, and we saw the whole chaos,” she said, noting that she had just registered her children in the district that morning.

“It was about because I put them as a bus driver, and now I think about it,” she said.

The crash comes after another Cleveland isd -school bus that carries students from Cleveland High School and Cleveland Ninth Class Center “came to rest on their side in a ditch” on FM 1010 on Monday 11 August, according to one Online statement from the district.
