A Sealy ISD School Bus was in the final steps of dropping off children when it was involved in an accident.  The accident took place on Hwy 36 heading towards Bellville just before Keaton Cattle.  We are still trying to gather details about the accident but, from what the district posted and what was caught by an onlooker passing by it appears that the school bus was rear-ended while finishing the last leg of its drop-off route.

The Sealy ISD released a message for family to alleviate any fears that they might have had when hearing of the incident:

“Wednesday, May 18th, 2022.  All Tigers are safe!  SISD Bus #48, Butterfly, was involved in an accident on Hwy 36 N.  A small number students were still on the bus.  All students are safe!  Parents are being contacted.”

We have placed a call into the DPS Office that worked the scene and will update this story as more information is given to us.
