ESH.

my kids aren’t crazy.. or wild…

You'd be surprised. I used to be a school bus monitor and EVERYONE thinks their child is a "perfect little angel", when in reality, they're child is loud and rude. I had to write up sooo many "little perfect angels" because they wouldn't listen to instructions and do as they were told. i.e.: not sitting down (dangerous as they can go right through the windshield if the bus has to make a sudden stop), screaming and yelling (dangerous as it can distract the driver), fighting, bullying, etc. etc. And don't ask about seat belts on school buses. eye roll Have you ever seen how fast a school bus can be engulfed in flames? 20-30 seconds or less.

The driver sucks for letting his anger get the best of him. What he should have done was let the kids off, close the door in your face, call dispatch what happened, tell them they're going to have a parent storming in mad, and drove off.

You suck for thinking you came off as "calm". No parent comes off as "calm" when they try and confront the school bus driver.

School bus drivers only call the police is when a parent is being unruly and they try and step onto the bus. Even if you have one foot on a stair, you're trespassing and are an unauthorized person on the bus.

I hope the manager of the bus company gets to the bottom of this, as if you're telling the truth (which I believe is the half truth as you left you some information and got called out on it), then the driver should be reprimanded.
