🚨 URGENT MACON-BIBB PARENTS & COMMUNITY MEMBERS 🚨

No 7-year-old child should EVER be loaded onto a bus and left unattended on a public roadside without an authorized adult present.

On August 3rd, a major transportation breakdown put a second-grader in danger. When confronted, school leadership claimed the district lacks real-time bus tracking—despite Bibb County having active Tyler Drive GPS telematics across the entire fleet.

We are taking a 500-signature petition directly to the Bibb County Board of Education meeting TOMORROW (Monday, Aug 10) demanding 4 common-sense safety safeguards:

1️⃣ Strict 8-and-under drop-off enforcement (no unattended roadside releases)
2️⃣ Color-coded visual backpack tags for elementary riders
3️⃣ Mandatory principal telematics/GPS access during dismissal emergencies
4️⃣ Strict 5-to-10 minute missing child escalation rules

It takes 30 seconds to sign and stand up for student safety in Macon-Bibb: https://c.org/bh5Pdjp2Jp
✍️

📍 Join us tomorrow at 5:00 PM on the public sidewalk outside 2003 Riverside Dr for a peaceful rally before the board meeting.

ISO: Low Cost Vet

I'm searching for a an affordable/lower cost or sliding scale vet in the Warner Robins/Centerville area (I'm willing to travel further if necessary) for my darling tuxedo cat. Nothing emergent, just wanting to make sure I'm up to date on his health. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm not super particular, but I want to make sure my boy's getting the care he deserves.

Cat pics included!! <3
