UPDATED (4) | KCSD is thankfully able to report that the four students and one staff member that were injured in a school bus accident today have all been reported to KCSD as stable with at least one that has been treated and sent home, some, including the staff member, notably had “bumps and bruises,” and another child had a broken arm and was also stable. Our hearts continue to go out to the families that were directly involved and to our district family and community. KCSD would like to thank local and regional law enforcement and emergency services for their quick and comprehensive response to the accident, as well as thank neighboring communities and school districts that have reached out to offer their support during this time.

On Monday, the district will have additional counseling services available in the school buildings for those in need. We will continue to communicate additional updates to families and we hope that the community will have a safe and restorative weekend.

The accident continues to be under review by the Iowa State Patrol and KCSD is cooperating. We will continue to update the public, specifically with more information on the cause of the one vehicle accident (school bus) once information is available and allowable to be shared, however the district cannot comment on an ongoing investigation.

Best regards,
Todd Liechty
KCSD Interim Superintendent

Previous Post: District staff have been working with local authorities along with emergency services to communicate directly with the families of those involved and district families as a whole. Also, KCSD in partnership with local authorities are investigating the details of the accident to ensure the continued safety of every student and staff member in the district. For a recap of updates, KCSD previously sent alerts via the district’s communication application that included texts and emails to district families directly after the accident once the directly affected families had been personally contacted. Additional updates were also sent to district families as information has been made available.
