During summer break, Seattle Public Schools announced
for the start of the school year. The district assured it would give notice before Sep. 7 to students and parents whose bus routes could be impacted.To avoid any difficulties, incoming freshman Nathan Volk and his father took time to practice a bus route with King County Metro Transit."It’s nice to have something predictable and not have toand saying, ‘My son’s bus has not arrived, when is it going to get here?’" said David Volk, Nathan’s father.
Volk said the reliable city line is what his children prefer, after dealing with unreliable rides from the school district’s transportation service. "Last year was very frustrating. He was on a route and they often didn’t get him there on time. There were days that the bus did not arrive until an hour or two later, and sometimes the bus didn’t arrive at all. Sometimes the bus driver didn’t know where he or she was going," said Volk.
On social media, some parents said they feared challenges with the school bus system could be their fate this year.
