DECATUR â Decatur Public School administrators were being warned as early as October that its bus service might have difficulty retaining enough drivers to facilitate a return to in-person instruction in January without some financial assistance, according to correspondence obtained by the Herald & Review.
It wasnât until Jan. 12, a week before those classes were supposed to begin, that the school board learned there wouldnât be enough drivers and that the start of in-person instruction on Jan. 19 would have to be delayed. It was also the first time they learned of the request for funding from Alltown Bus Service to help shore up its staff.
