If you read the article, the bus driver job was not the school board's decision to make. They could comment, but that appears to be about it.
And before the Anderson critics get all excited, I also don't think this is an issue to use when considering the superintendent race. This is one of those issues that sounds like we don't have the whole story, and maybe there is a good reason why Anderson did not comment, since "no comment" situations often mean there is a "rest of the story".
A superintendent has to make many decisions- not all of them will be popular, and maybe even sometimes not fair. She is the boss of the school district employees.
