Effingham County Schools Transportation Department

"Filed complaints multiple times last year and this year about the way bus driver Julie drives and her lack of care of the children on bus 142. Has anyone removed her from driving our children? No! She is still behind the wheel of a bus, still allowing children to hurt each other on the bus all while she sits and watches in her mirror, she hits stop signs and runs into ditches. What did Dana say about this? It’s ok accidents happen all the time with buses, she didn’t go into a ditch, she almost did. Seriously!! What is it going to take for someone to actually step up and do their job? Get it together Effingham county transportation!!! Find us drivers who care about our children!!!"

"Great people!! I love it here. They are always so patient, understanding and professional."

"#82 bus at 0800 turning left from Lost Plantation onto Fort Howard..... The driver is making turns that I wouldn't make in a car let alone a school bus full of children. If my kids were on this bus I'd be very upset. I've witnessed this multiple times. The driver is making last minute turns that you would not expect him/her to make. As such cars heading towards Hwy21 are having to brake abruptly. Please send an 'inspector ' to sit on Ft Howard and see first hand what is going on."

"We don’t attend any public school in this area, however, we live where they pick up and drop off in Lost Plantation. The bus drivers fly through here. It’s unacceptable. We have children bike riding, walking etc. if the speed limit is 25 you need to be going 15. You are heavier, it takes longer for you to stop if a child were to dart out. Keep our neighborhood safe, or pick up at the entrance!!!!"

"Terrible busses always late to school. This new bus driver is the worst driver , she acts like she ain’t never drove a day In her life. My child complains of headaches everyday after the bus since she became the bus driver. Plz change the driver"
