Chesterfield County parents can now get information via Twitter if school buses are delayed. The school system’s five area offices for transportation started tweeting today, the first day after spring break. Each area transportation office plans to tweet as soon as possible if a bus is running late by 15 minutes or more either picking students up in the morning or returning students to their bus stops in the afternoon.
Here are the Twitter handles for the five area transportation offices, which transport students in all grades of Chesterfield County Public Schools:
- Follow @busBirdMBK for information from area 1, which oversees transportation in the area around Bird High and Meadowbrook High.
- Follow @busMatDale for information from area 4, which oversees transportation in the area around Matoaca High and Thomas Dale High.
- Follow @busSpecialNeeds for information from area 5, which oversees transportation for students who have special needs.
