Good Afternoon,
Approximately 30 minutes ago, a bus transporting students from Ravenswood High School to the Roane-Jackson Technical School was forced to swerve into a roadside ditch to avoid oncoming traffic that had entered its lane.
Emergency personnel responded quickly and confirmed to Jackson County Schools that there were no reported injuries. As an added precaution, the nurse at Ravenswood High School will re-evaluate the students once they return to school.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Transportation Office at 304-373-1020 or Ravenswood High School at 304-273-9301.
