I am no longer driving School Bus because a parent contacted the school making complaints and only one of them was true and it was about stopping at a store and buying my wife a sub as well as myself and a student, which was the last one on the bus and we were a 1/2 mile from her house.  I had her Mom's permission.

It all started from me writing a student up for making unprovoked racist comments towards another student and the student admitted to all of it.

I resigned my position from constant false complaints, doing my job properly but not as they felt it should be done, talking to parents about their students behavior on the bus (which the ACSU Superintendent told me was not the school's business because I was not employed by the school) and seeing kids being treated differently for reasons unknown. Some getting kicked off the bus for a 1st. offense and other getting written up 3 or more times and still riding.

Parents are upset and many kids will not ride the bus now and have told their parents to drive them or they won't go.

I play a big role in each of my students lives and because of an angry parent, hundreds of people have been hurt.

Please offer your support to show the School Board, Bet-Cha Trasnit and Student Transportation of America that I'm a driver that goes above and beyond the call of duty and loved by all my kiddos.

Thank You,

Rock

The administration at Student Transportation of America is still hiding behind silence while my students suffer from their reckless decisions. I am spending every waking hour dragging their discriminatory practices into the light because they clearly think they can just get away with firing a good driver for doing the right thing.

The massive wave of support clearly proves the school board and their contractors cannot simply silence the truth about how they operate. These cowards thought they could push me out and hope everyone would stay quiet but the momentum we have built proves them wrong.

Bring him back now. He stood up for the kid being bullied and now they punish him? Unbelievable.

My son wont ride the bus anymore either. Too many rules for some kids and none for others. Rock was the only fair one on that bus.

Rock is the best bus driver my kids ever had. He actually cares about them and keeps them safe. This is just crazy.

He got fired for buying a sub? That is the most pathetic thing I ever heard. Let the man drive.

STUPID decision by the school. They lost a good guy over some petty complaints.
