Mean bus driver?My 15 yr old has been coming home complaining that the bus driver is"backwoods & sexist"I have
told her that things are different down here in Georgia & to try to take it in stride. She is on the bus from 7:AM til 8:05 one way during the AM. So far she has told me that he: *screams "Shut up" on a regular basis, *he segragates the seats so the girls are stacked up 3 to a seat while the boys are mostly 1to a seat;2 seats have two boys in them, * a girl was complaining of being cold & kept asking him to turn on the heater when he did turn on the heater a boy in front of them put his window down & the driver just laughed & wouldn't make him put it up,* when several girls told him to do his job he threatened to write them up for being disruptive, *he's bragged about having two wives. His own DD rides the bus & is humiliated by this guy. I haven't said anything yet because nothing has happened directly to my DD till y.day when his supervisor rode the bus with him. The supervisor took my DD hairbrush & never gave it back & said it was a violation & threatend to write her & others up?
As far as "she knows not to take a brush..." the object rule here reads: may not have an object that might interfere with the school bus operation. And I have never seen a hairbrush interfere in the operation of a school bus.

Use a small voice recorder that can be concealed to record the bus ride and everything the driver says. He may say something that would get him in trouble with the school or his supervisor. It isn't admissable in court, but is in school or to a supervisor. Just an idea to get the matter remedied.

Why you telling her to take it in stride? Not cool!
Contact the school administration let them know whats going on.
That's a form of child abuse. If my child came home and told me that I would be on the phone with the school and making a complaint that something needs to be done.
As to the supervisor, they need to get someone else in there to watch and see what happens. Take it up as far as you can.
They shouldn't be riding the bus having to go thru that kind of stuff and if you don't say anything about it, your just as bad.

Keep launching formal complaints about the discrimination. Technically, the supervisor taking the hairbrush is theft.

go to the press, hang the both of them, even though hes`s probably doing his job, he still needs to get his priorities corrected, what he`s doing now is at least disruptive in and of its own, if you dont get any atisfaction, you might need legal assistance to get their attn, nothing succeds like getting sued for big bucks for sex discrimination and harassment

i would go to the school board. your daughter knows not to have a brush on the bus not even at school.
