San Diego School District Alters Bus Policy

Recent incidents in the Jamul-Dulzura Union School District in San Diego, California, involved groups of individuals, reported to be migrants, attempting to board school buses transporting children. The first occurrence involved three men walking in the middle of Highway 94, prompting a bus driver to avoid them. The following day, a larger group of about 20 individuals approached a bus at a student stop, causing concern among parents present. Despite initial media reports suggesting a threat, law enforcement officials, including the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office, concluded that no forceful attempts were made to board the buses. As a precaution, the school district has changed its policy, instructing bus drivers to skip stops where migrants are present and advising parents to follow the buses to safe pickup points. The situation has raised significant concerns about student safety and the ongoing border crisis.
