A Hood News Peep whose daughter attends Grangerland Intermediate School in Conroe ISD has raised concerns about an incident involving a school bus driver.
According to the mother, another student allegedly threw a paper airplane at her daughter, who threw it back, leading to an interaction with the driver.
In a video provided to Grizzy’s Hood News, the driver can be heard instructing the student to get down on the ground to pick up the item.
The mother claims the driver pulled the bus over and that the interaction left her daughter crying and embarrassed. She also says her daughter has been dealing with bullying on the bus.
The mother says she contacted Conroe ISD’s transportation department and was told they were short-staffed but would try to assign another driver.
While she acknowledges her daughter was wrong for throwing the paper airplane, she questions whether the driver’s response was appropriate and feels her concerns have not been adequately addressed.
