Cobb County School Bus Practice is Friday

Bus route practice for Cobb County kindergartners takes place later this week.

Parents of rising Cobb County kindergartners are invited on a trial run of their child’s bus route Friday, Aug. 10.

“The District offers this opportunity to help families introduce Cobb's youngest students to the school bus and make our first day on Monday, Aug. 13 run more smoothly,” a Cobb County schools representative said in a press release. The district asks that only kindergartners and their parents participate in the trial run because of space limitations.

Parents are asked to arrive at their child’s bus stop five minutes before pickup. Bus drivers will complete the entire route to and from school before dropping passengers off at their stops.
