Anderson County Schools were made aware that this afternoon, January 8th, while traveling along 127 and 44 near Walmart, a car collided with Anderson County School bus #9, which was stationary in the turn lane. There were 52 students on board. The driver of the car as well as two students were checked by EMS at the scene. We have since reached out to the families of both students and are also in the process of notifying the parents of all students on board bus #9. We want to express our gratitude to first responders for promptly reporting to the scene and to our parents for being patient as we continue to verify details for communication.
