Bridgewater bus blunder still not fixed
The EnterpriseBRIDGEWATER — Haley Williams was nervous about going to school again Wednesday, but not because first grade was too scary.Haley, 6, was one of 14 students who were known to arrive home Tuesday at least an hour late on the bus from her first day of school — all while her parents said school officials kept them clueless in the dark as to her whereabouts.Paul and Dawn Williams comforted Haley on Wednesday morning and nudged her to take the bus again, never imagining they could relive the previous day's events.They did."It was a fiasco again," said Dawn Williams, whose daughter came home an hour late again from George H. Mitchell Elemen tary School."Apparently (the school) can't figure out how to put kids on a school bus, even though every other town can," she added, noting a bus driver told her the hold-up came from students boarding the wrong buses.School Superintendent Jacqueline Forbes blamed Tuesday's late homecomings on it being "the first day, a new bus company and late arrivals" by the bus company to the schools.
