Staff Update on the Kaibeto Bus Incident

Good afternoon, TCUSD Family,
I wanted to make sure you heard directly from me about the bus fire on our Kaibeto route this morning. Our driver got off the bus safely, and no students were on board. I’m grateful our driver is safe, and I’m thinking about our kiddos who were waiting for the bus and their families. I know this may have been an unsettling start to their day. Our Transportation team sent two replacement buses to pick up students along the route.
I’ve attached the letter to our community so you have the same information we’re sharing with families. Thank you to our first responders and Transportation team for acting quickly, and to our Kaibeto families for their patience this morning. Thank you for taking care of one another.
Stronger Together,
Scott Nedrow
Superintendent
Tuba City Unified School District #15
