AUSTIN, Texas — Parents at Campbell Elementary School raised concerns after a substitute school bus driver took a wrong turn on Tuesday morning, causing a delay in student arrivals.

The incident led some parents to describe the situation as a kidnapping, prompting widespread anxiety. Austin Independent School District (ISD) clarified that the driver had simply become lost.

The bus deviated from its expected route, leading to delays that worried parents, who attempted to contact the school for information.

Austin ISD confirmed that the substitute driver, unfamiliar with the route, had made an error.

The district dispatched personnel to locate the bus and ensure the safety of the children. Officials reassured parents that the students were never in danger.

Austin ISD has launched an internal investigation to understand the cause of the error and to improve communication protocols for future incidents. The district is also reviewing its policies regarding substitute driver training.

School safety experts suggest that GPS tracking on buses could improve safety and communication, offering real-time location updates to both parents and officials.

The affected students were returned home safely, and the district assures the community that safety remains their top priority. The district plans to engage with parents to restore trust and prevent future issues.
