Buster the School Bus spreads message of safety, awareness to district students

Fort Bend ISD (October 24, 2024) – To help Fort Bend ISD recognize National School Bus Safety Week, Buster the School Bus is visiting elementary campuses to deliver a message of safety and awareness.

Buster, a remote-controlled robot that moves, speaks, blinks its eyes and flashes warning lights, engages students in a fun way.

During the visits, Transportation Department staff members and Buster are teaching the students safety tips, such as paying attention to school bus lights, arriving early at their bus stop, waiting for the bus to make a complete stop before boarding, and remaining seated and quiet to avoid distracting the driver.
