Hmm everyone had to do it because of field trips and stuff.

Jumping is fun. Always tried to do an A-Team with friends. Teachers never appreciated it though. U never know when the Colonel is trying to catch you.

WTF?! School Bus Safety Day.

Never heard of this. I never had to do this. I walked to school, but we never had to do this because of field trips either.

We did have a chemical spill drill though.

Poor thing you should have snuck

I meant everyone in our school district. Now that I think about it, we did it in high school because I had the same bus driver in elementary and high school and she clowned me that in elementary I jumped but as a senior, I scooted off. Yeah I had breasts in high school.

No. In case of a chemical spill (like for pools and such or whatever) we all had to evacuate the school and we were all bused to another school. We only did this once for some reason and we sat in this school auditorium for half a day doing nothing. It was a complete waste of time, but I guess it was better than being in class.

I remember those bus safety drills. They were fun!

We also did tornado drills. My elementary school was still in portable classrooms while the actual school was being built. They made us hide under our desks with our hands covering our heads during the tornado drills. Because, ya know, the desk and our hands would provide a lot of protection when a tornado comes busting through a portable classroom.

Kinda like the nuclear drill in the 60s. The desk will save you from the impact of a nuclear blast.

Yup, I remember those bus drills. Basically we got on a bus, got a lecture about how riding the bus was a privilege, not a right, how we should all wear our seat belts (HA!), etc, then went out the back door. Everyone had to go through it every year, even high school seniors, most of whom wouldn't be caught dead on a school bus. At least it got us out of gym...

Back in middle school, we had teachers who would oversee bus boarding at dismissal time. They would get on the bus every day to make sure we were all being good boys and girls and wearing our seat belts. They must have known that the instant the bus pulled away, the seat belts came off.

We had a tornado drill once too, y'know, because tornadoes are so common in the Northeast.

We don't have seatbelts in our buses. And I don't remember doing a bus safety day either.

Ohh I remember that. The ground always seemed so far away. LOL. We didn't have seat belts in our busses either.
