How any school even partners with a company with a 2.9 rating is beyond me to start off. This bus company is trash the staff in the office and on the buses are also. I have had the worst experiences with this bus company. GLEN the main coward there attempted to close the doors of the bus on me while I was standing in the doorway and my son was still on the bus. The bus company would not take my complaint nor would a supervisor call me back. I had my son’s bus driver switched for the rest of the year and had no problems with the new bus driver. After I made several calls to express my concern discern and distaste for this driver the bus company and the school assigned him to my child again without my knowledge nor permission. When i called to file complaints again there was not one record with the school nor the bus company of my previous complaints. No valid reason provided other than everyone forgot or no one knew. While it’s ok for a male to go out of his way to try to cause harm to a mother while picking up her child and doing this while he is at work I can only imagine what this coward would do when no one is around. This company should be shutdown or all staff members replaced with people whose main concern is actually doing their job

This company picks up a kid on our block at 6:20-6:40AM every morning, how do I know ? The Gateway Transportation school bus driver of small bus 115 honks their horn to notify the family that they are outside and by doing so wakes us up. 😑 None of the other school buses who pick up on our block do this.

If I had a saying I would not recommend this bus company. Because I have a special need child going to a different school we have to use this company. I’ve drove school bus myself and I have never dealt with this nitpicking game .
For example morning bus drive can’t blow the horn , child missed bus and school . Dispatcher said they don’t blow the horn. But the
afternoon bus driver blows the horn 2 houses before they get to my house .
Now on the afternoon bus you now have to be next to the bus or on the bus to get child off the bus NOT waiting on your porch or front lawn . The dispatcher said it’s unacceptable to have child get off bus by themselves knowing 2 adults are outside looking at the bus driver, bus aid and child. (But in the morning child gets on bus by themselves while an adult is watching them on the on the porch).
Now I know why parents are homeschooling their children. I don’t blame them I would to if I didn’t have to work to pay my bills for a horrible bus company that are county taxes pay for .

Afternoon of 3/18/25, at intersection of Maple Ave & Freemans Bridge Rd, had a Gateway bus (#43) tailgate us as we went the speed limit down Maple Ave, and then pass us on the right when the road went to two lanes as we approached a red light at Freemans Bridge Rd. Bus was going so fast I wasn't sure it would be able to stop at the light. Driver ended up in the intersection (picture) trying not to skid to a halt. I'd be frightened to trust my kid with this specific driver. Fortunately I don't believe there were any children on the bus at this time.

I just had bus number 70 tailgating me coming down Watt Street. Between 1:15 and 1:20 p.m. today April 4th. Your bus drivers are horrible bus drivers with no respect to other drivers or the road. It's not the first time I encountered problems with your drivers. I'm sorry I wasn't going fast enough to be a speed demon for them. One of these days A drivers going to have a horrible accident in the children are the ones who are going to pay.

How long is I was dreading going to this 5 Hour course. I'm a woman of a particular age so I was afraid of possibly falling asleep. But I have to say that it was one of the most enjoyable morning slash afternoon I've had in awhile. My instructor was David who was unbelievably entertaining as well as informative. I left there was a plethora of knowledge and happy that I did complete the course without one nap... LOL. Thank you so much David and I appreciate you as my instructor.
