The South Bend Community School Corporation, the fourth-largest school district in Indiana according to its website, last week announced schools would offer digital-only learning for at least the first eight weeks of the school year, which started Wednesday.The school is parking buses in designated areas that lack internet service, the district said in a statement,"near benches or covered areas." Students aren't allowed on the bus, for safety and health reasons.

Trump insulted Sweden in the last campaign and accused it of being communist. How come 100% of kids in Swedish schools have access to internet at home and school, while in the US they have to plant WIFI on school buses. Shame and sad for a so called super power.
I would not allow my child to ride a bus, enclosed spaces are the tops for spreading any infectious disease.

Do they have seatbelts in em?
