If you ask Charlotte dad Zacchary McLean, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools failed a pretty important test on Thursday.

“You guys didn’t do your job,” McLean said.

He said the subject of this test was trust and safety. Thursday, McLean dropped his 8-year-old son Carter off at the bus stop to go to school.

“Seen him get on, seen the doors close,” McLean said. “I said alright, I’m headed off to work.”

McLean went home for about 20 minutes before heading to work. Then he saw something that stumped him.

“My son Carter walks right back through the door, and we’re like how are you here, and why are you here,” McLean asked. “We get a knock on our door from two concerned parents saying they drove Carter home from the bus stop. He said he had to get off the bus because it was overcrowded.”

McLean and his wife reached out to CMS and the bus company trying to figure out why their 8-year-old was left at the corner.

The bus company told McLean the driver followed policy.

WCNC Charlotte reached out to CMS about the incident. The district responded with the following statement:

“If a bus is overcrowded, our policy is that the bus is to remain onsite until a relief bus arrives to pick up impacted students. We are currently investigating the details surrounding today’s bus stop incident. We will review it against our current procedures and adjust as necessary to ensure this does not occur again.” #wakeupclt

The City of Charlotte North Carolina

The city of Charlotte, North Carolina, is an incredibly diverse urban center. It is located in the Piedmont region of southern North Carolina. Unlike other southern states, it is relatively temperate. While the winters in Charlotte are not harsh, the summers can get pretty hot.

Charlotte is home to many colleges and universities. This includes Duke University and NC State, as well as UNC. These institutions provide a steady influx of new graduates. Also, the city of Charlotte is a magnet for those who want to pursue a career in the energy industry. Many major energy players, such as Fluor, AREVA, and Duke Energy, are based in Charlotte.

Charlotte is a great place to raise a family. However, it may not be the right move for everyone. A majority of the population in Charlotte is affiliated with Protestant Christianity.

In the late 20th century, Charlotte grew to become a booming city. This was achieved by ambitious modernizing programs. One such program was the construction of a light rail system. Today, the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) serves the city with 70 stops. CATS has connections to the Charlotte Douglas International Airport.

Charlotte is also home to numerous sports teams. It is the hometown of the Carolina Panthers, as well as the Charlotte Hornets and the BB&T Knights. Some of the top employers in Charlotte are Lowe’s, Bank of America, American Airlines, and Wells Fargo.

A large percentage of the population in Charlotte is black, although a large minority of residents is Asian. There is also a high rate of mixed race individuals.
