For some reason @OSSEDC isn’t promoting it’s daily tracker anymore 🤔 Maybe because parents & data revealed it isn’t accurate at @councilofdc hearing yesterday? TY @ChmnMendelson for holding the hearing! #ShareYourBusStory @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @DCSBOE @wtopnews.bsky.social @51stnews

No comms on @OSSEDC daily tracker today which only lists 1 🚌 route late but am sure that’s inaccurate esp after @Commanders game last night 🫠 Headed to testify @councilofdc on the issue now. #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @ChmnMendelson @CMZParker5 @dcsboe.bsky.social

Unnecessary anxiety again this morning due to poor comms. Didn’t receive text/📞 🚌 was “on time” until 6:44am; usually earlier. This 👇 is why an APP is SO critical for families & students! #ShareYourBusStory @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @councilofdc.bsky.social @ChmnMendelson @cmzparker5.bsky.social

Only 1 🚌 route listed late, but probably only bc @OSSEDC doesn’t know. 🚌 drivers & aides “bid” on routes & this first morning. 🚌 usually arrived at 7am (7:17a schedule) but who knows w/ new team 🫠 #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @MayorBowser @wtopnews.bsky.social

🚌 arrived at 6:55am. Notable bc schedule is 7:17a which means 🪟 opens at 7a. However 🚌 only required to wait 5min. Of course single-parenting this week, so wasn’t ready at 6:55. Luckily 🚌 waited, but they also didn’t know schedule changed from 7:07a. 🤯#ShareYourBusStory

Much better for us today but obviously not for the 44 🚌loads of students that are LATE this morning!!! 🤯😤😡 THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN - for those in the back who aren’t listening: @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @councilofdc!!! #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @dcsboe.bsky.social

It’s Friday, so that means 🚌 issues… 🫠 Informed 🚌 route was 20min late, but we’re at 30min late & #PRC said 🚌 is across town! 😩 & nothing listed on tracker which is why NO ONE can trust @OSSEDC to report accurately! 😤 #ShareYourBusStory @DCChildrensLaw @washlaw4cr.bsky.social

💯👇

12 late 🚌 routes this morning! Ugh! 😤 IT NEVER ENDS @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @councilofdc @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @DCSBOE @DCNewsNow @WashInformer @WTOP @postlocal @wusa9 @7NewsDC @fox5dc @nbcwashington @51stnews @wamu885 #ShareYourBusStory

10 late + 1 down 🚌 route this morning. That’s 11 routes of students & their families disrupted!!! #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @MayorBowser @councilofdc @ChmnMendelson @dcsboe.bsky.social @CMZParker5 @CMRobertWhiteDC @CMCharlesAllen @CMCHenderson @cmfrumin.bsky.social

27 🚌 routes late this morning; at least 27 students missing instructional time; at least 27 families in chaos 🤦‍♀️ Doesn’t have yo be this way, @OSSEDC !!! #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @MayorBowser @councilofdc @ChmnMendelson @postlocal @wtopnews.bsky.social @51stnews

.@OSSEDC what does this mean??? 👇 Son was picked up at 7am. Has his 🚌 been in an accident?!? (Didn’t look at text right away as I get multiple daily about 🚌 - mostly not helpful as too late to be of use.) Calling #PRC now… 😤 #ShareYourBusStory @DCChildrensLaw @washlaw4cr.bsky.social

Only 10 🚌 routes *reported* late today. Who knows if it’s true? 🤷‍♀️ Still not okay @mayorbowser.bsky.social & @chmnmendelson.bsky.social! @councilofdc @DCSBOE @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @wtopnews.bsky.social @wusa9 @7NewsDC @dcnewsnow.bsky.social @51stnews #ShareYourBusStory

Like clockwork - ⬆️ 🚌 routes late/down bc @NFL season started 😩 If I know this why doesn’t @OSSEDC *plan* for this?!? 30 late & 1 down route!!! #ShareYourBusStory @DCChildrensLaw @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @MayorBowser @chmnmendelson.bsky.social @councilofdc @DCSBOE @CMZParker5 @wtop @postlocal

Excellent SAT question that has no answer!!! 😤

All good for us this morning but it’s Friday so that means overall not good - 33 🚌 routes late! 33 🚌loads of students missing educational opportunities! 33 🚌loads of families impacted! #NotOkay #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @councilofdc @mayorbowser.bsky.social

🚌 on time this morning! #ThankGoodness But what about the 11 🚌 routes reported late?!? #ShareYourBusStory @DCChildrensLaw @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @ChmnMendelson @MayorBowser @councilofdc @DCSBOE @WTOP @DCNewsNow @postlocal @51stnews @wusa9 @7NewsDC @WashInformer @maustermuhle

So glad 🚌 was on time this morning, but sad for the #disabled students & families of the 14 🚌 routes reported late today. #ShareYourBusStory @DCChildrensLaw @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @councilofdc.bsky.social @chmnmendelson.bsky.social @mayorbowser.bsky.social @dcsboe.bsky.social

Today was SO much better - 🚌 arrived w/in 🪟. Made ALL the difference in our morning routine! Tracker says only 1 🚌 route late but I know of at least 1 other w/ no info or notice. 😩 #ShareYourBusStory @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @wtop @postlocal

@cmzparker5.bsky.social you good w/ how @ossedc prioritizes NW > NE & #Ward5?!? Assume so since you haven’t FIXED the problem in 2.5 YEARS!!! #ShareYourBusStory

Another family -their bus never showed this AM. On hold with the parent resource center for over a half hour only to be told that the driver “never showed up”. If the driver never showed up, why did families never receive notice? @childrenslawcenter.org @dcattorneygeneral.bsky.social

Great start to the year… received 📞/text 🚌 40+min late 😩😡😤 Told boss this might happen but still 🫠 #NotGood #ShareYourBusStory @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @TheArcUS @McDermottLaw @MayorBowser @CMZParker5 @ChmnMendelson @councilofdc @postlocal @wtopnews.bsky.social @DCNewsNow @wusa9.bsky.social

🚌 arrived 7:36a today, which is again outside p/u 🪟but usual time. Text 🚌 was on time received 7:14a (7:07a yesterday) so not helpful. But 🚌 arrived text received at 8:18a which is helpful if true. Last day of school for @stcoletta! #ShareYourBusStory @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @councilofdc.bsky.social

So, 🚌 arrived at 7:37a which is *usual* time, but outside p/u 🪟. However, yesterday 🚌 arrived at 8:10a, which is w/in p/u 🪟 but 30min later than usual. 🫠 This inconsistency is what kills families! @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw #ShareYourBusStory @mayorbowser.bsky.social @chmnmendelson.bsky.social

Again, @OSSEDC, I just don’t understand how transporting students on a regular schedule is SO HARD?!? Son supposed to arrive NLT 3:30, but it’s 4 & still not arrived!!! #ShareYourBusStory @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @councilofdc @ChmnMendelson @MayorBowser @cmzparker5 @wtopnews.bsky.social

@OSSEDC - how hard is it to set a schedule & sticker to it?!? Son just arrived home (1:30p) but schedule says 12:39p - which TBH is IMPOSSIBLE since school ends at 12:30p on W. How can this still be happening 2.5yr later??? @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @TheArcUS #ShareYourBusStory

19 🚌 routes late today. Not bad but not great. #DoBetter @mayorbowser.bsky.social @ChmnMendelson @councilofdc! @CMZParker5 @dcsboe.bsky.social @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @wtopnews.bsky.social @postlocal @51stnews @WashInformer @wusa9 @7NewsDC @washingtonpost.com #ShareYourBusStory

20 🚌 routes late today. Just never great & not sure the new @OSSEDC “Parent Portal” will fix all the problems. Only received notice once I reached out; worried about families getting lost. @washlaw4cr.bsky.social @DCChildrensLaw @DCNewsNow @WTOP @postlocal @DCSBOE @mayorbowser.bsky.social

*Only* 27 🚌 routes reported late today 🫠 Wish for 0 & no reporting necessary but not even a lawsuit had achieved that. @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @councilofdc @CMZParker5 @DCSBOE @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @WTOP @postlocal @51stnews #ShareYourBusStory

48 🚌 routes late on > #SchoolDay590 When will @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @councilofdc provide the TRANSPORTATION required to #disabled students?!? #ShareYourBusStory @DCChildrensLaw @WashLaw4CR @DCSBOE @CMZParker5 @postlocal @WTOP @wusa9 @7NewsDC @WashInformer @51stnews

37 🚌 routes late on #SchoolDay555 (give/take). Really really absurd this is still a thing #disabled students & their families have to deal with! @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @CMZParker5 @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @WTOP @postlocal @WashInformer #ShareYourBusStory

Apologies it’s been >1month since I posted but my real job has been crazy busy. Anyways, we’re at least at #SchoolDay550 & they’re 38 🚌 routes reported late. REALLY unbelievable this is still a thing @MayorBowser @ChmnMendelson @CMZParker5!!! #ShareYourBusStory @WashLaw4CR

25 🚌 routes late on #SchoolDay512. This is better than other days but it’s still NOT OKAY. Won’t normalize this poor performance by @OSSEDC! @MayorBowser @councilofdc @ChmnMendelson @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @postlocal @WTOP @DCSBOE #ShareYourBusStory

Not surprised that it’s 40 🚌 routes impacted on #SchoolDay510. Fridays are ALWAYS worse but @OSSEDC does nothing to mitigate! #ShareYourBusStory @MayorBowser @councilofdc @ChmnMendelson @DCSBOE @WashLaw4CR @DCChildrensLaw @WTOP @postlocal @DCNewsNow @7NewsDC @wusa9 @WashInformer

#SchoolDay496 & son is sick. Called #PRC to say we don’t need 🚌 today but haven’t spoken to anyone after 20min. Will have to just look out for 🚌 to tell them. (Not like 🚌 would get this information anyway so don’t know why I call…) “My call is very important” to them 🤪
