The bus didn show up on time. How long should my child wait at the stop?
Your child should arrive at the stop at least 10 minutes before the scheduled arrival time of the bus. If there is a substitute driver, the times may not be absolutely consistent with the regular times. If the bus is late, ask your child to remain at the stop. Buses break down, roads are blocked, drivers become ill or have emergencies, but there will always be a bus at every stop. If the wait becomes 10 minutes or longer, call the appropriate bus satellite.
