CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – Emily Clark, principal at Norman Smith Elementary School, is addressing a critical bus driver shortage in Clarksville-Montgomery County Schools by becoming a certified bus driver.
According to a story on CMCSS’s website, Clark earned her certification in January after noticing that many of her students had to endure long wait times after school.
Over 20,000 students rely on school buses each day in Montgomery County, and driver shortages have necessitated altered or extended routes.
The COVID-19 pandemic has made these issues worse.
“It’s always sad when a substantial time has passed and our students are still in the hallway,” Clark told CMCSS.
