Buses Without AC Threaten Student Safety | Louisville News

Over 100 JCPS bus drivers called in sick Friday due to unbearable heat — buses sweltering past 100 degrees without air conditioning.

No resolution yet — and it’s getting hotter. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
