A father is incensed that his 5-year-old daughter was left behind on her school bus — and he says it’s a chronic problem.
“If you have adults all through the hallway, how did it happen for the third time?” the father said angrily to a female official and the assistant principal, Anthony Williams. “The first time I was calm, I was understanding. … The second time, I was mad but I let it go. The third time, my son called me from the bus, crying, screaming that he doesn’t know where his sister is.”
The first time the girl was left behind, reportedly right when the school year started, she was found wandering around an area where parents pick up their children. The second time, reportedly after winter break, the student had been dozing in a hallway while waiting in line with other children and was somehow skipped over. When she was found, the couple says, they were told to pick her up at 4 p.m. otherwise the school wouldn’t be responsible because there was a “teacher’s party.
Dad, make arrangements to transport your daughter back and forth to school. I don't care if she is entitled to school transportation do it for her safety. Save your family the heartache of fatality. Their actions say 'we don't like you all.
